"The Poznań" Mini-Album Released Today!

New Year, new mini-album - "The Poznań" is really personal and autobiographical. In the lyrics I sing about my grandpa, football, drugs, alcohol, women, Ireland, Poznań (the town where I was born)... and I look back at my favorite songs and mix them with brand new songs.

The album is really short, clocking in at 25:07. It's shorter than my latest mini-album, "Bavarian Gypsy" (Father and Son Records and Tapes, 2020).

It is probably my last release with conventional songs, as I got tired of the verse/chorus/verse structure. Or no chorus at all, as is often the case with Bob Dylan songs. Or Leonard Cohen. Or Lee Hazlewood. Or many of my older tunes.

I will soon release "Neon Nocturnes" on the German netlabel Engram Recordings - this one will be purely instrumental synthesizer music in the vein of New Age and space ambient. 

What's next for me? Let's see what the crazy Father Time brings. Have a happy 2024 and thank you for buying my records.
