The Album will be released through Dust Devil Music and distribution through Stomp/Republic of Music.
After the long 30hour journey through the skies and through the many railway stations, lugging far too much luggage for one person to comfortably carry, I made it to France. I’m here having a few weeks of eating good food and generally just experiencing living in Paris.
Its good to have this time to look around and try find some inspiration but I’m also waiting eagerly on the other side of this little planet to be joined by Nick C. and Damian to begin our first European Tour. It’s a beautiful place to be and it’s so exciting to be able to finally get over here.
I’m sure it’s going to be an intense period; it’s kinda the next step and an important one for Blackchords. Getting our music as far and wide as possible and hopefully leaving a good impression. Either way it’s definitely going to be an experience!
Our long time Bassist Jay Tilley is staying back home in Melbourne to begin a new chapter of his life, with his very cute little bub, Otis Tilley. Much love to Jay, S-J and Otis!
So… Frenchmen Arnaud Bétrom (Bassist) and Benoit Guivarch (Keys, guitarist) will be joining Blackchords for our tour. I’m sure they’ll be able to pull me out of the holes that I dig for myself trying to speak bad French on stage!!
Also over the last leg of our NSW and Victorian shows those of you who made it along would’ve noticed a few new faces on stage. Shane O’Keeffe (Bass) and Brendan Donahoo (Keys). I’d like to thank them very much for joining us. Its been ace to have them on stage with us.
OK well that’s it for now keep checking back as we’ll have some new news quite often. I’ll try and get some happy snaps too!
Now I’m going to put on my beret and head down the street to buy a baguette, some fromage and some vin rouge and try to fit in!
A bientôt
