Hey Biz. Good to hear from you. Colin's new album Island is top drawer I would say. Nice gig with him at An Tobar last Tuesday and hoping to tour it with a full band in September so maybe make it to Aberdeen. Hope you're well and busy. Gx
I'm happy to announce that my new album "Songs From The Films Of David Lynch" is out now.
"Truly unsettling and perplexingly brilliant... testament to both the quality of Lynch’s soundtracks and Truax’s talents" - The Skinny
"Truax is paying homage to a kindred spirit with this album. It's the best kind of tribute – affectionate and respectful, but with its own quirks and imaginative leaps and its own distinct identity." -The Scotsman
I 'deactivated' my Facebook as I hate dusting and the tumbleweed was clogging up my screen. You can't 'delete' your Facebook account - which is a tad sinister =0
