After meeting one of my musical heroes…
After meeting one of my musical heroes, vocalist Omar Lye-Fook MBE, at the 2011 MOBO Awards, we had the pleasure of recording a new composition ‘Song For The Open Road’ at The Premises Studios in east London. He was a total legend! We even managed to film a music video in the same day – directed by the songs’ lyricist Rupert Friend.

Finishing Touches
Add finishing touches to the album at The Premises and drag O’Reilly back over from Ireland as we loved his vocals so much we wanted hime to do another track! Maestro Buckley in his element conducting strings, harp, french horn etc. Photos here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10151486647909755.1073741830.96989544754&type=1&l=fa95761145
Holed up at Real World Studios
Holed up at Real World Studios near Bath recording the new album. Some very long but productive days and nights! Was great to welcome the wonderful Marc O’Reilly and Emilia Martensson on vocals and explore new horizons. Also getting to enjoy the delights of maestro Jules Buckley in the producers chair.
