Steven McCabe Just wanted to let everyone know that I now have a provisional release date for the new album. I am booking the CD pressing plant today and will share more news as it comes in. Keep in the loop by joining the email list below. Note that the CD will be a strictly limited edition, too.
Well, I think it’s about time I posted an image of the artwork for the forthcoming new album . . . . What do you think?
It’s becoming a lot like Xmas . . . . this Xmas single lark! No matter, I present to you our latest foray into the murky world of Yuletide cheer . . . . . Good King Wenceslas! Re-imagined for a more prog-savvy audience, this instrumental version of the tune …
Been a long time since the last post. I will hopefully be able to bring things up to speed shortly. But for now, I just wanted to let everyone know that our site is now fully SSL enabled (look for the padlock in your browser). Note that we never collected …
I finally got around to fixing a few things with the website as well as having a general spruce / tidy. I have also killed off lots of sections and things that no one was really interested in and pruned it right back to the just the really important stuff. …
Available right now at our SoundCloud emporium of bits, bobs and miscellany, you will find around 10 minutes of extracts of songs from the forthcoming new album The Ghost of a Smile. These are just demos: not mixed, mastered or otherwise processed. They do sound pretty spiffing, even in this …
I have compiled a mighty Spotify playlist of some of longest material (not all of it, as not everything is on Spotify), but its a goodly sized chunk of music: 22 tracks at 5+ hours in length. The songs are in no particular order!
The April Newsletter was sent out the other day. In it, there is an exclusive look at he forthcoming new album and some demo tracks to listen to! If you are on the list, you will already have seen it. If you are not, then you can either sign up …
To prepare myself for April’s newsletter (still got to write it, mind!), I have spring-cleaned the newsletter archive at the website. Man, all those gaps!
As some point today, I am giving Facebook the Heave and, indeed, Ho. This is not up for debate. I have been inspired by Derek Sivers and his rather interesting post.
Well, those nice chaps at Bandcamp have gone and launched Bandcamp Gift Cards! So, if you are stuck for a last minute gift for someone, it couldn’t be easier to give the gift of music: select a design, choose a value, pop in an email address and the recipient gets …
Silent Night, our new Xmas single, is out now! This very day, you should be able to find it in all the streaming / download sites across the globe! However . . . . . EXCLUSIVELY to Bandcamp users . . .. if you buy direct from the band, you …
Ok, here comes a quick look at the final artwork for our soon-to-be-released Xmas single . . . . Silent Night! I’ve made every effort (!) to maintain some semblance of a Xmas vibe and I think it looks rather good. As with the last single, there will be an …
Today, I’m working on the mix for Silent Night, our soon to come Xmas single for 2017. As you can see from the screen grab, it’s a complex little beastie! I’m hoping to complete the mix this weekend.
Our latest video is now available. Entitled Quantum Spin, this is track 6 from our Kicking the Olive Branch album. This is just your bog-standard album cover type video thing . . . no time to throw anything more elaborate than that together for it due to time being taken up with the Xmas Single . . . More of that to follow . . .
The next video to be released, later today, will be the hard rocking number 6 song from Kicking the Olive Branch album . . . the riff-alicious Quantum Spin! This will be a simple ‘let the music do the talking‘ kind of video. More details soon. And I will also …
Ilmarinen’s Bride of Gold, our very popular track featured on the triple Kalevala album some years ago is being released as a single shortly. It will feature a brand new mix, a new saxophone part and some additional keyboard work. Not to mention my very own Presence Tron! It really …
This is a very quick notification to let you know that our highly regarded (and one of my personal favourites) 1998 album Purity and Despair is now sold out on CD. That’s it. All gone. No more re-presses. End of the line. Totally and utterly left the building! Luckily, the …
Just a quick update . . . I have now completed the recording of the instrumental version of this years Xmas single. As you can probably guess, it is Silent Night. But not any old Silent Night! No, this is a kitchen sink progressive rock epic! We have the usual …
