Immaculada - Progress

Just back from a recording session in Dublin with uilleann piper Steve Mullen and Lisa Cuthbert, who both did a great job on the songs. The first track 'The Silent Stars' is now complete, I just need to mix it. In the meantime Mark Kelson had been laying down vocal tracks in his home studio in Melbourne, Australia. And Gina Rios in Monterrey, Mexico. So a productive weekend for the album, with sessions in three continents. An unorthodox way to make a record, but thats fine by me.


Steve Mullen

I'm also pleased to be getting a new custom built mandolin from Freshwater Folk Instruments up in Inverness, Scotland. Which will be ready for the next tour.
