New album 'The Ghost Is The Only One That Beats My Drum' out now.
Good morning.
My latest collection of songs is now available as a limited CD-r and digital download through Bandcamp and here on my site.
This album was recorded at the end of summer in a big empty room in Stuttgart and is a far thicker and noisier set of songs than the previous ‘bottle the grief’ from earlier in the year. I got my hands a bit dirty with it - was a lot of fun to make and not so easy to finish.
It’s available to buy on Bandcamp today and at most other online places in a week or so . I urge everyone to please stick with the Bandcamp option as it helps all musicians enormously.
If you subscribe to me there (please consider doing so) then you get this album automatically and I sent the CDs out to you a week ago.
The physical version has a unique self portrait on the cover - each one different - and is a numbered edition of 100. An A3 size lyric and chord sheet is inside and all Bandcamp orders come with an immediate download.

BUY ON BANDCAMP
Also, from today, my label Woodland Recordings is offering a free 20 track compilation with every order. A couple of my earlier things are on there as well as brilliant songs from many good friends. See and listen to that here.
I’ll perhaps write more about this album in the next days but I’m always happy if anyone lets me know their thoughts on it too. Sometimes it goes somewhere else and recently of course living and working has been as if in a bubble. I have no idea.
So, made this. Stay well and speak soon.
