Today is my 30th birthday which seems like the perfect time to release Sailor, the studio single.
This single was recorded and produced by the one and only Stew Kirkwood at Sound Extractor Studio in Edmonton the summer of 2015 and I’ve been excited about it ever since.
This is a “release” in every sense of the word. As time passes I realize now much I’ve changed personally since writing the song in 2014. The beauty is, I will never be the person who wrote that song again. Regardless, music is about much more than where it begins and this song still holds that intense longing for someone you miss feeling that many can relate to. The recording is worth listening to in full, especially when the gospel choir comes in. (It starts at 2:20 if you just can’t wait). So please, crank it up loud wherever you are and wait for star cast star cast gospel choir ending which features an Edmonton star cast: Jay Gilday, Lindsay Walker, Eva Foote, Martin Kerr, Erin Kay & Ken Stead.
It’s not cheap to make recordings like this so if you feel so inclined donate a buck or two on bandcamp and that money will allow me to do another one! (stay tuned….).
