Hello, 

It’s been a while…..

Here is your copy of the first single from the new album, Party of One. It’s a double A-side which will be released on 23rd May. 

Killing Time was written this time last year in a hotel room in Glasgow on a borrowed ukulele at 2am. I recorded a demo of it with Mark the following day in the studio and then we shared this with Russell and Boo. It was decided we should record it at the next session…..

So, a few weeks later, the band were setting up for the recording session as Boo and I sat down to chart Killing Time and there and then Boo came up with the bridge. The track was finished that day. 

Is Your Love in Vain has been a favourite Dylan song of mine for a long time. It took a while for it to work its way into my live set as I found it pretty nerve wracking to play! We recorded this song first time round in March 2010. It was just me and my guitar and Gustaf Ljunggren on lap steel. A lovely live recording that you will no doubt hear at some point but I felt it was too slow and I wanted to know what it would be like with drums…. So at the June recording session with Martyn Barker and Kevin Mcguire present we did it again. Stuart Nisbet overdubbed a gorgeous guitar solo and there you have it. So to mark Bob’s 70th birthday on 24th May, I thought I’d release it as a single. 

The single will be download only – please play your copy to your friends and family and encourage them to buy it online! It would be amazing if I could get into the iTunes singles chart. Airplay is expected certainly by Bob Harris and Ricky Ross of BBC Radio Scotland will be playing Is Your Love in Vain as part of his Bob Dylan Birthday special on 20th May.

Thank you all for your continued support AND for your patience. It’s been a long haul getting things together! 

Speak soon,
