We now have in our stock room the brand new remasters of ‘Suits’ and ‘Songs from the Mirror’ as well as all the new tour merchandise.

Mr and Mrs Dick – “Just Married”
As most of you probably know by now Simone and I were married on Saturday 14th October at Aberlady Church.

‘Weltschmerz’ – The seeds are sown
Steve Vantsis and I had a productive time last week when he was up but I have to admit I was pulling myself out of a creative swamp for the first 4 days and had to sit back and let him conjure some magic until I got on my feet. I have to be truthfully honest and say I have … Read More

Steve Vantsis and John Beck now driving South after a productive week here at the studio. The seeds of around 4 songs have been sown and although a long way off they are an inspiring start.

The original intention was for James himself to remix but he was honest enough to admit that he’s “ring rusty” when it comes to engineering and producing having been working in artist management for over 15 years now. It was put forward that a 3rd … Read More
