Hello there. I hope you’re all well and for the most part,embracing the white shroud that has plunged us into chaos : ) I love the snow-but i may not,should it leave me stranded in London ahead of tomorrow’s Hope and Social Snowball extravaganza…

Anyways! This week i’ve been at Din in Limehouse, putting down some drum tracks for my good friend Antonio Lulic’s debut album. It’s my third time working at Din with the fab,coffee-loving,head bopping super producer Julian Simmons-and it’s been no less fun; I’ve played drums in the style of Springsteen,Mac and Jovi-all on a lovely blue sparkle 1966 Ludwig Drum Kit. Yes. Here’s some links to a few things we’ve been up to;

On another note,’Boy Cries Wolf’ has had yet another praiseworthy review :) Thanks Paul for your lovely words;

“There is a common belief, that if you asked Gary Stewart to play a gig in your garage, he would, and the performance would be as polished as if he was playing the main stage at Glastonbury, such is his love of music and performing. The release of his debut album “Boy Cries Wolf” emphasizes this fully, as the drive and enthusiasm shines through every song on the 10 track album. Kicking off with a GS classic “Travelling Song” Gary moves on apace with support from an impressive collection of musicians in the form of, Sam Lawrence(accordion,whistle,mandolin), Adam Richards (double bass), India Patel (violin), Martyn Roper (banjo), Ed Dawson (backing vocals,melodica) and Rich Stephenson (backing vocals,bass). The Simon & Garfunkel feel of “Behind the Door” is enhanced by the guest vocals of the superb Ellen Smith, as is “In The Pines” featuring one of Yorkshire’s finest female singer-songwriters Rosie Doonan. To complete the full-circle, the album finishes with two more fan-favourites in the form of “Tripping Holes” and “Bucket of Stars” to leave the listener eagerly pressing the play button immediately the last track finishes, to re-experience an album which produces a level of consistency very few of his peers could hope to match and is a credit to a very talented musician and songwriter. Whether you know any of Gary Stewarts music or not this is a must buy CD.”
