Ronnie Lane’s sublime track Debris, from The Faces’ album A Nod’s As Good As A Wink, is an all-time favourite of mine and a huge influence on a lot of the music I make.  So for the wonderful Kenney Jones (Small Faces, Faces, The Who) to say this about my new song The Times in Your Life is high praise indeed  

“It has a Ronnie Lane / Faces feel – I like it”

Well he should know 😀

I was incredibly fortunate back at the beginning of 2020 to meet a quite brilliant saxophone player called Nathan Haines, a musician of world renown, who I was hoping to book for a project I was curating in his home city of Auckland.  Somewhat inevitably, Covid put an end to the project but the connection was not in vain.  Almost exactly a year after we met, I am thrilled to be releasing a song on which Nathan not only played a sublime saxophone part, but which he also mixed for me.  His contribution has taken this song to an entirely new place and I couldn’t be more thrilled with it – or keen to share it with the world.

Check out Nathan’s work at NathanHaines.com and you’ll immediately understand why I feel so honoured to have him play on this track.
