FISH TO SWIM WITH FRESH TIDES THIS FALL

October 15th, 2009

…..well, what can we say -  We’ve been fishing all summer and it’s been a while since we’ve been writing >> Just wanted to hit the newsboard with a little something just to say, we’re on it - things are being recorded, music and lyrics written - it’s time for this fish to swim once more. Check back here for updates over the next few weeks, around the start of November. Many of us have re-located to warmer seas, others to more urban quarters but our oil skins are hanging up drying in the hallway now and we’re firing up some musical treats to keep you entertained. coming soon……

THE VIRGIL STURGEON - CREATING “SLIDING SIDEWAYS”

October 19th, 2008

Here is a live acoustic performance by Virgil, as they develop and search for ideas on a new track called “sliding sideways” - This was recorded at Gab’s studio in the Bastille, Paris, with Gabbo on cello, Si on acoustic guitar and Dan singing. You’ll also see Dan writing lyrics for the track live in the studio - the main verse and chorus for the track were written on the move; by Dan in an airport in Florida and by Si on a train into London. Check out the video to see the creative process and also a little taster of the finished track right at the end. More to come…
