The songs on this album were written between Winter 2008 and Spring 2011 except for Pop Story (2004), Such Fine Eyes which I wrote when I was 16 and Just Like You which I wrote as a two verse tune at 18 - subsequent verses were added in intervals as recorded in the narrative of the song.
Thank you to all the musicians who performed on the record, and in particular to Luke Mullen without whom I would never have embarked on this journey. My deepest gratitude is to Andy Kremer, for his guidance, dedication and big attitude - and above all for putting wheels on my dreams!
This album is for Annabel and Robbi - may it put wheels on yours ...
