...AND AS THE SHIP WENT DOWN, YOU'D NEVER LOOKED FINER Black Cab Session.
I've bought your album Songbook, and I love it. I've got another cd in, a EP (6 songs), and the songs are perfect. It's very welled singed, composed...the sound is very good. A good surprise, cause I didn't know you before.
wonderful gig in Gothenburg in august. great for inspiration. We recorded a few songs earlier in summer and now they've been mixed. Hoping you could love them at least half as much as I love yours. /Kalle
Farewell Woodpigeon...best 2 date tour ever. Have a great rest of tour...we're really tempted to come to summer sundae in leicester so maybe see you there. Take care. xxx
