The Studio Sessions.... cont.


It's so important to me to feel relaxed and at home when I'm doing a studio session, almost as if I'm in my own lounge room. Big Al who is the owner/producer at the Sonic Kitchen Studios was so great to work with, and creates a chilled vibe which gives the space for creativity to flow.

The musicians who sessioned on 'Earth On An Axis' gave so much of their heart and soul, and together we created an album that I'm really excited about.


I'm looking at releasing early 2010. Will keep you posted.

'Dragonfly' the Film Clip Part 2

I never realised how much goes into shooting a video clip. Thanks to everyone who helped to make this video possible, including all the musicians, Stephanie from IssTV, VOID for the warehouse + frames,Caro and Andre, the gypsy dancers, the horses from the New Forest, the Parisian shadow walkers, and of course Valeria, who made all the props and was so great to work with. She is a visionary and a great director! We are all looking forward to seeing the end result, which will coincide with the release of my debut album 'Earth On An Axis' early 2010.

IssTV came down and interviewed Valeria and myself on location down at the Branksome Chine forest gardens. If you wanna check it out, click on this link: IssTV.
