New album launched
Tuesday, December 8th, 2009
Well perhaps more ‘uploaded’ than ‘launched’ but what the hey… you can now hear and download it. I have just had an almond slice to celebrate.
The cd will be available in the new year, in the meantime you can order it from bandcamp and get an immediate download of the album included in the price.
It features the talents of Barbara Bartz, Iain Macleod, Joe Allen, Lawrence Williams, Ben Oliver, Beth Dariti, Madelaine Hart, Victoria Couper, Tom Pie and me. Full credits on bandcamp.

rehearsing
Wednesday, September 16th, 2009A few more photos of rehearsing action from the blue door – this time a rehearsal inside.
Amy is doing her playing three instruments at once thang… who’d have thought you could play a glockenspiele with one foot whilst on bass and tambourine too!

On friday I had the best gig of my life, hands down. Nice to know after all these years and all these venues there are still gems to be discovered.
The venue is called The Institute and is in a old village in Essex called Kelvedon. The website can be found here – http://www.liveattheinstitute.co.uk/
Barbara and I were supporting Dan Raza, who incidentally got his first gig at the venue when I had to pull out due to illness last summer. He rocked their world so much they invited him back to headline with me as support.
Thanks to Matt Hill AKA quiet loner for the black and white photo below.

Last month I spent another day recording with the wonderful Dean Firth but this time I brought some friends along.
My favourite take of the day was this cover of ‘Golden Brown’ by The Stranglers which I have uploaded for your listening pleasure here – http://www.robingrey.com/mp3/goldenbrown.mp3
I am hoping to do much more live recording work like this. Capturing a live performance with an ensemble is such a different experience to over dubbing instruments in my little studio!
Christian Lewcock – Percussion and Backing Vocals
Iain Macleod – Banjo and Backing Vocals
Barbara Bartz – Violin
Dean Firth – Electric Bass
