Bonsoir,
I have a new digital download single available as from today:
This single - "Many a Man" (a new song) / "Igelkott" (a different version with some beautiful fiddle) - is released to raise money for a good friend of mine who had a motorcycle accident last week. Thankfully he is alive and will recover eventually, but he has broken his right leg in four places and also his left hand. He is a self-employed tradesman and he will not be able to work for 6 months at least.
So, we thought that "every little helps", and Jim, Sam and I recorded "Many a Man" on Tuesday night, and have now made it available as a digital download directly from my website, to raise some money to help my friend out.
The two-track single costs
only £1 and all proceeds will go to my friend, to make at least a small but positive difference in his unfortunate and difficult situation.
"Many a Man" is a previously unreleased song featuring resonator guitar (upright, not lap style), double bass and cajón, and it is backed by a version of my lap slide tune "Igelkott" with the great Nick Pynn on fiddle, that was recorded during the sessions for the "Hedgehogs & Elephants" album. My sister Anna Kinbom made the cover artwork over in Stockholm today. So here is a song recorded two days ago, mixed today, and with artwork finished today in another country, available for you to download - modern times!
Here is a short youtube trailer for the single:
