  • Bio

    .... "If the Lord hadn't rested on the seventh day, he probably would've created his own band. Don't despair, A Day's Work takes on this brave task and succeeds with five stars." .. We wouldn't dare to put it like that, but we can't resist taking over this quote from OOR magazine. .. .. This is one of the great responses we got concerning the album "A Home in the Rain" that A Day's Work released in September 2006. Daily newspaper 'The Almaarsche Courant' called it "A surprising, new and original sound. (...) And all this is carried by beautiful singing and inventive guitar- and drumwork." And on 'www.melodic.net ‘ they are brief: "A true masterpiece." .. .. Frontman of the band is singer Paul Glandorf. He is praised for his warm, bright voice and his expressive stage presentation. Johannes de Boom, former frontman of rockband 'The Shavers' said at the finals of the 'Westfriesche Popprijs': 'If there will be a 'Zilveren Harp' (a Silver Harp, a Dutch Popaward) this year for best singer, I would highly recommend Paul from A Day's Work as possible winner'. .. .. Live on stage, A Day's Work always brings a truckload of energy. And that hasn't remained unnoticed... A Day's Work has opened up shows for bands like Snow Patrol (UK), Racoon (NL), Golden Earring (NL), Riverside (PL) and Living Colour (USA). And legendary rockband Marillion (UK) has personally invited A Day's Work to tour with them through Europe. .. .. ..Discography.... A Day's Work released it's new full-length album 'A Home in the Rain' on September 1st 2006 in Europe through DAWA Records and Suburban Distribution. The album is full of powerful rocksongs, catchy melodies, high-energy New-wave orientated songs and a beautiful accoustic song featuring 'This Beautiful Mess'-singer Arjen van Wijk. .. .. 'A Home in the Rain' was recorded in the Dufry Studio in Amsterdam by Rene de Vries, mixed in the Mailman Studio in Utrecht by Martijn Groeneveld and mastered by Alan Ward (Lou Reed, Urban Dance Squad, Zita Swoon) in Electric City in Brussels. .. .. A Day's Work debuted with the CD 'Above and Within' in 2002, followed by the EP 'Drowning in what I believe' in 2004. Both albums received outstanding responses from the media and audiences! ..

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT ADVERTISING ...

    "Honey, I finally figured out how we could make

    ends meet with the new baby arriving ~ so I

    sold some ad space to help cover our costs!

    It didn't turn out too bad did it?"

    TO SPEND MONEY THEY DON'T HAVE ~ FOR

    THINGS THEY DON'T NEED!

    HAVE A LAUGH TODAY!

    An inspiring story of CHRISTMAS for you !

     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS "THE CHRISTMAS WISH" ...

    "With his small hands clasped together
    He kneeled beside his bed
    Trying to wipe the tears away
    This is what the small boy said.
    .
    Dear Lord, I miss my daddy so
    He's been gone almost a year
    And it's really hard on mom right now
    Since Christmas Eve is here.
    .
    I do my best to help her
    I've done the things I should
    If you'll please bring me a puppy dog
    I promise to be good.
    .
    I get to missing dad so much
    Though I know he's there with you
    I think a pup would cheer me up
    And soothe me when I'm blue.
    .
    So, the little boy fell off to sleep
    And drifted far away
    He dreamed of fluffy puppy dogs
    That chased him in his play.

    Then something strange awakened him
    In the middle of the night
    He felt a presence in the room
    But no one was in sight.
    .
    The little boy looked all around
    There was not a soul to greet
    But a SMALL AND FLUFFY PUPPY
    Curled up there at his feet.
    .
    WISHES REALLY DO COME TRUE
    In his heart he felt so glad
    The tag attached said simply
    TO YOU DEAR SON ... FROM DAD."

    ~ Marilyn Ferguson
    .
    BLESS US LORD, THIS CHRISTMAS, WITH QUIETNESS OF MIND;  TEACH US TO BE PATIENT AND ALWAYS TO BE KIND!

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,

    Richard
