musical families and friendships, part two

One thing which Our Guys can say they truly have in common is musically-talented progeny, and today Rick's son Adam released a second album with his long-time friend and collaborator Damian Wilson - The Sun Will Dance In Its Twilight Hour - the creation of which was crowdfunded on Kickstarter and is now available across all digital distribution platforms and on CD from Blacklake.  A vinyl version is scheduled for release in March.

Their 2016 album Weir Keeper's Tale is a beautifully written and recorded work and I recommend it to anyone who enjoys acoustic-based music in the classic singer-songwriter mode.  Adam and Damian are incredibly talented; and as they compromise 2/5ths of Headspace, one of my now-favorite groups, these albums are an automatic acquisition for me.

My favorites from the new release thus far are: "On This Battlefield" (with Adam on lead vocal), "Tried And Tested," and the title track.

And of course anyone who has followed Rick's career over the years knows that Adam and Damian (along with Lee Pomeroy) were a part of his New English Rock Ensemble from 2000-2002.
