Since the end of August 2013, I've really looked at songwriting and little else. I took some family time in the UK, but apart from that, I've either been behind the pen or the mic. I guess it will carry on that way into the new year and beyond; I expect it to, anyway.
Quite how Tommy Denander has had time to jump in with me, I don't know, his schedule is demanding to say the least. But he has and it's been great so far working with Tommy. Very easy. And fluid.
Robert Sall has been jetting back and forth as well, with MRF amongst other things, but we've still connected well to develop two songs and hopefully a third. Good powerful stuff.
I've also hooked up again recently with Paul Sabu and Eric Ragno, who I've worked with in China Blue as well as some solo material for Vital Designs. Eric is currently re-working a song I've written for the record and finishing up some ideas on a ballad we are co-writing. Paul is co-writing various music for different projects with me. Great guy to work with.
Terje Eide has been very involved with editing the first of two songs we are working on together and we are currently building tracks for that material right now.
Andreas Nergard and Pete Newdeck are involved with percussion, although we haven't reached that stage yet we are also involved in other productions of Andreas' own planning for next year.
There should also be some live announcements with SHY during the not too distant future, so I'll keep you posted on that; possibly in Norway as well as the UK.
I'll post some shots of the musicians on the team over this coming week.
