about

The recording of most of these songs began in early 2020, with the intention of inviting fellow members of my band 'The Dreamlanders' to add their musical skills. However, the spread of the corona virus put pay to that and so during lockdown I instead spent the Spring and early Summer developing these recordings by myself. I did this whilst in isolation with my dog in an old summerhouse next to my vegetable garden and workshop in the north downs of Kent, UK.

I dusted down a second hand keyboard, which to my surprise spluttered into life after years in storage... So began an unexpected musical journey. I hope you enjoy Levitating in Lockdown.

released July 31, 2021

All songs written by myself except 'Rose of Allendale' traditional & 'Seagull' written and composed in 1905 by E.W.Rogers & Charles Collins (my grandad would sing this song to my mum and elder sister whilst our dad was away during the second world war)

I am joined by Collin Lovatt on Drums and Percussion for the remix of the song 'Bright about the Shadows' originally recorded in 2002.
