about

Dedication:
Dedicated to Simon Pearson, drummer extraordinaire and sweet humble man who passed away during the production of this album. His way of playing was inimitable, such a unique voice, what a sad loss. RIP and thank you for all your beautiful playing. We will all miss you.

Acknowledgements;
Many thanks to the wonderful musicians who played on this album and contributed their own genius to bring these songs to life. To my wife Eleonora whose unwavering support and love has made the creating of this album possible. My daughters Maîte and Elena, for teaching me about what really matters in life, love you forever. My parents Clive and Maria, for instilling in me a self belief, and a confidence to dare to dream that anything is possible. Lastly to Greg Dowling, without whose support this album would not have been made - thanks for your belief in this project!
