Hey. Hope your New Year has gotten off to the start you all wished for.

Outward silence from me whilst indulging – recording and mixing – finding rooms, peeling back distractions whilst delving into the night lives of North London. ‘Tis a period of shadowy experimentation, the results of which will be with you at some point soon(ish).

If you already haven’t, here’s the material that I released last year, still available as download and physical -

• LUNACY (plus 3 b-sides)
• CHASING DRAGONS (plus 3 alternative versions)
• THE FIRE BRIGADE (single download)
• WAITING FOR THE POST-MAN (11 track album – download and limited CD’s)

Much thanks for all your support during 2011. Top of this post is one of my latest paintings ‘Festival Of Light’ which is currently being exhibited in Rochester’s Nucleus Art Shop, alongside some other pieces of mine and a whole host of other artists work. Worth a trip in you’re in the Kent area, if not head over to www.brokenarts.co.uk to see my work – new stuff to be  uploaded soon.

Lastly, though I’d share some photographs taken by Ian Rook, who’s worked with a whole host of interesting artists in the past – and is official photographer to Buzzcocks. I met Ian in Hull late last year, and before my gig we took a trip out into the old town. Many thanks to him for allowing use of these photos. Here’s a few from that shoot ….

… and whilst on the subject of photographers, you’ll notice a few changes around the site, one of which is the back ground – a live shot taken by Phil Dillon last year at The Slaughtered Lamb in London. Many thanks to him for letting me have use of it.

So … until next time, keep well and in touch.

Crook.
