indeed folks be prepared… a stunning album is on the way from the Black Sand Diva her self, Catherine Tunks. i was invited to record gat yesterday on some of her tracks at hill street studios, a superb new studio with Wazz running the sound side of things. the album, mostly self penned Tunks songs, will be a wicked blend of jazz through to celtic & folk.. the session was a treat with jason orm on drums, dave “ghetto booty” hodkinson on pedulla, joel vinsen & i on gats with Cat singin… wot a voice! wot songs! wot a great bunch of musos! look out for it in the new year or sooner..
