Echo Flight - Update #1

Echo Flight, my new band, has two members so far - myself on rhythm guitar, and Glenn MacCulloch on drums. Glenn and I co-founded both Tall Poppies and Julia's Rain (that's JR at left playing at our 1994 ECMA showcase in Sydney), and he later went on to play with Cool Blue Halo.

It's exciting to re-connect with Glenn, and to play with him again. It should be a lot of fun - we always worked well together back in "the day".

As for the recording of the album, I'll be calling on a number of my old pals from the 1990s Halifax music industry to sit in as guest musicians. The big question is whether I take on the vocal chores myself, or whether we find someone else, like I always did before. We'll see. But for live gigs, of which we'll play at least one, we'll strip it down to the basics - lead, bass, rhythm and a little good old rock 'n' roll.

Which means I have to find a bass player. Hmm...

Stay tuned. I have an old friend in mind!
