Salutations! At last the weather has caught on to the fact it's summer, and I just have a feeling that Summer 2011 is going to be memorable. I've been holed up for a lot of this year with a horrible bout of rheumatoid arthritis, but I'm up and about now and it's been a real joy being outside today.

Musically I've been exploring the theme of 'eucatastrophe' for years. This was an idea put forward by J.R.R. Tolkien that sometimes in life, but not usually in art, things just sudddenly go right all over the place. I've tried to right about ther positive that came from the negative; from the darkness of the last few years.

My first offering in this vein is my summer nostalgia song, Sunset on the Bay. I hope to follow it up with an EP.

Keep smiling, people. You never know what's round the corner.
