I have experienced a dead hard drive, recently, that has caused me to lose the contact details of all people who have asked to be kept informed about the release of my next CD. I blame Microsoft Office for the difficulty in making Address Book backups. Nevertheless, please do email me and send me your contact details.
Many of you will know me, or, at least, know of me, through my appearances with Eddie and the Hot Rods and the Kursaal Flyers, with whom I spent a number of enjoyable years. Some of you might have purchased the G2 CD and become interested in my work in that way.
I have finally finished songs for the new CD, or, as I've decided to call it for obvious reasons, "Eclectic". An old friend, Steven Forward, has finished mixing this album for me - I'm just getting artwork and track listing/mastering finished. There will be video files of the new songs and, also some live videos, up here on the video pages; perhaps, on Facebook and You Tube. Check here for my You Tube videos page.
I'm, currently, looking for promoters and agents. If you would like me to play in your neck of the woods, please mail me and tell of the venue and promoter who handles the booking there. The material that I plan to play will (I hope) cover most of my most popular songs, sometimes re-arranged to suit the new format of my live appearances, but still the same songs that many people have known and loved (?). There'll also be songs from the “G2” CD and some from the soon-to-be released Eclectic — see right. The visuals for the CD have been realized by Samy Mosher, from the session by Andrew Douglas. I'm sure you will agree that he did a fine job, once you get your grubby mitts on a copy.
I will be playing selections from my greatest hits plus songs from "G2" and the new CD "Eclectic". John will, of course, be playing in his own inimitable style. I will open the show, so don't get there too late!
I will give a free copy of my CD G2 to everyone at the show, plus, if you supply me an an email address, I will reserve you a copy of my latest CD “Eclectic” at a discount price, with P&P free.

The original Kursaals will play a brief 30 mins set on the occasion of the Lee Brilleaux Memorial Concert. Tickets for this are very hard to acquire so I put this up for information only. The Ks will do their normal almost hits.
