First public sighting...

Hallam London performed three of our new songs for the first time in public just now here.  I watched the whole thing via live streaming, very exciting to hear the songs performed with a band and live audience!

You can see a recording of the performance here although our new songs do not begin until around 9:25.

These songs are:

• Bright Girl
• DanceCrime
• The Rain in Certain Car Parks

 I may say more about them in future posts.  For the moment it has just been a exciting evening, even if it is slightly strange to be watching from a sofa several hundred miles away...

Collaboration with Hallam London

Hallam London is a German singer/composer with whom I have been collaborating to create some new original songs.  We've been making progress quite quickly but obviously it is quite time consuming work.  We have three songs nearing completion, a few more just beginning the process and quite a lot more sitting in "Ian's ideas bucket."

We do not yet have an ETA for any releases but we have started to trickle a little publicity into the public ear...

Hallam is a great singer and we are both very excited by the project.  I will keep you posted as it develops.

I may also post things like teasers of the song titles, extracts of the lyrics and recordings of me reading them—as poems, you'll be pleased to know I won't be singing.  I leave that to Hallam as he is infinitely better than I could ever be.
