Jeremy Vine on Radio 2

 

Click to hear Where Is The Love? on BBC Radio 2

I have to confess to being a little starstruck upon meeting Jeremy in a car park yesterday. I reguarly tune in and enjoy his mix of pop & pundits and his quick thinking intelligent delivery makes for a real good chewy listen (what I mean is the guests on the phone in often provoke a wide range of reactions and I find myself nodding in a greement or screaming and banging on the steering wheel in despair)  

So I was really pleased Jeremy played Where Is The Love? and would like to thank him for taking the bold step of playing an unsigned artist on daytime national radio. Co – written with Eric Barlow, the song features the wonderful sound of BJ Cole on pedal steel and Carina Round on vocals. Read more about the recording process here

This project was a real pleasure from beginning to end. The research part of it was fun as I had a valid reason to sit and watch hours of Ray Goslings wonderful films, and the filming day was great as Ray is a true gent and shared a lot of wisdom.

Next week I will be featured on a great website called Tunatheday

I am happy to announce my first full band show in London, at Water Rats in Kings Cross, Thursday July 23rd supporting Carina Round. We’re on stage at 9:45pm and tickets are on sale here.

I shall also be playing guitar in Carina’s band on the night, so i’m currently working hard to try to master her songs!

I have also been in the studio putting (what I hope will prove to be!) the finishing touches to ‘The Box EP’, my third release of 2009.

I have been lucky enough to have some very special guests collaborate with me on this EP and whilst it is still a little early to be making any grand predictions; I am hopeful for a beautiful blossom of sound come the final mix!

My next big hometown show (I am planning on making them a regular occurance, if that’s alright?!) will be on October 10th at the Newhampton Arts Centre (reach for your diaries now!) and I plan to have a few tracks mixed in time to distribute at this event.

Hope all is well out there with you all,

Dan x

ps: I am playing a secret acoustic show in London on July 22nd, whilst i am forbidden from making a public announcement of the location if you email me i can tell you the details!
