Having put Tales of Silversleeve to bed with a story I snuck out of the bedroom, (making sure to leave the night light on) and started working on a new album. I have a feeling it will be a far more rounded child who is good at interacting with others and has better manners, but not so confident as to be petulant or talk back. No. This will be a Victorian child who makes hand crafted presents for you and who enjoys sharing sweets with others. So now you know everything there is to know, I will leave you with this: I hope to have a new album finished soon. I am happy with it so far.
THE BARE BONES TOUR!! (see above the gig dates) What is this magical thing of which I speak? It's a chance to play intimate venues without being too noisy for sensitive ears. Re arranged songs to better suit candlelight. Three of us playing as many instruments as we can fit in our suitcases and the chance for me to babble nonsense if I so choose as the bigger venues tend to echo unpleasantly, and I do so hate the sound of my own voice.. don't we all. That's the Bare Bones Tour. It's nice. And slightly special.
Hey! Hope you're well. This is the trailer for my short film 'Henry & Sunny' (myspace.com/henryandsunny). Hope you like it!
In a time of unprecedented economic depression, mass unemployment and civil unrest, one group has borne the brunt of society's scorn the clowns. Henry & Sunny is the bittersweet tale of Henry, an unemployed clown, in love with the famous soap opera actress, Sunny Carmichael. He writes her letters daily yet fear of rejection prevents him from disclosing his return address. Sunny, stifled by a sycophantic showbiz world, reciprocates Henry's feelings but is tragically unable to reach him. Beautifully photographed in high contrast black & white, Henry & Sunny is a melancholy tale of true love against all odds.

Hey Cathy. You're one of the few Irish musicians I have faith in. Your music gets a regular airing here in LA. Only caught you live the once: in Austin 18 months ago. But loved it. Keep up the good work. Gavin
