About the NNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWW ALBUM...
:: CUTE GIRLS LOVE TO CROCHET ::
Composed by Mike Carney on piano,
laced with insightful and delightful words by Cameron Semmens,
undergirded by the strings of Rod Gear.
It is hopeful and beautiful; gentle and quirky... a musical sweet shop!
About the 1st album... :: A SOUVENIR OF SADNESS AND A BOTTLE OF BLISS ::
More of a sonic photo album than a jazz/indie, spoken word/double bass album. An attempt to transform tombstones into milestones; milestones into precious stones… A full length album of colourful ideas, phrases and notes all spinning and swirling with passion and beauty. Heart-breaking, hearty and heartening... an album both FOR and FROM the heart.
About the book the album is based on...
:: THROUGH THE LOVER'S WINDOW ::
The Trials and Tresures of Love and Loving.
A high quality, adult book of 116 pages. This book is the account of one man’s passage through the end of one relationship and the beginning of another: the loving, the losing and the learning. Both raw and refined this universal tale is told with clarity, honesty, humour and insight. There is rhyme in his reason. There is madness in his method. There is story in his poetry - poetry in his story.

I had to take pungent back the latin, but i think i've worked out it was a compliment... thankyou cammy. I'm very much looking forward to getting my hands on the new book!
I was just listening to your stuff at the same time as my friend Shanes.. accidently.. I had the two windows open and had all this crazy strings stuff going on over the top of loops.. then realised. Try it. Open your myspace at the same time as http://www.myspace.com/shanezxsstate
well hello there.. I'm only listening on crappy laptop speakers up the road on stolen wireless, but it sounds awesome. Let's have a glass of red again soon eh?
oh you are most welcome... I just got home then. Thanks for the kind words about the photos... I am a little camera shy... but thankyou all the same. So this is your band/project site. it looks cool! It will be great to hear some of your stuff... will be different from the stuff im used to from you i assume. a lot more moody.
