Due out Fall, 2012 - "Pas de Deux"
Cover Image: "Pas de Deux" by Naomi Bradford
"Pas de Deux" (LP) is in the works and is due out Fall, 2012 (the recording sessions are going well but have slowed because of gig activity - not a bad problem!). This collection of 12 tunes (and growing) will have a stylistic focus in the Americana/Roots genre, with additional instrumentation including stand-up bass, piano and coronet...
It will feature my arrangements of traditional tunes such as Stephen Foster's "Hard Times Come Again No More" and "Molly Do Ya Love Me", as well as "Blow Ye Gentle Wind" and "I'll Roll in My Sweet Baby's Arms", but the majority of the album will feature original tunes - "Pas de Deux", "Red Velvet Cake Boogie", "Straight and Narrow" Pickin' the Blues" (samples below + featured on the Hokum Rock Blueberry Farm website), "Nace" based upon a poem by Pablo Neruda, "Ain't Goin' to the Zoo", "Shroud of Time", "The Gift"... Also in the midst of writing some new tunes for it - "Mystical House of Beauty", "Last Call Wallace Hartley" ...this may end up being a double CD release! Pas de Deux will be available in CD or Download Card formats...
HELP!!! Two additional ways to help me keep this going:
* For an investment of $150.00 you receive 2 CDs of your choice and one "Pas de Deux" cover aretwork Signed and Numbered Limited Edition Print by Naomi Bradford (image above); and;
* For an investment of $500.00, I'll do a free Two Hour House Concert with 20 complimentry CDs available to those in attendance and the host will receive one of the Limited Edition, Signed and Numbered Prints of the "Pas de Deux" cover artwork by Naomi Bradford!
