Preorder MOAT’s new album POISON STREAM
Hey everyone,
Today sees fresh sounds emanating from MOAT with the latest album POISON STREAM ready to go. The project is a collaboration between myself and Swedish-German multi-instrumentalist Niko Röhlcke with Noctorum partner Dare Mason in the control room, putting our heads together for this three-way production extravaganza. Noctorum drummer Eddie John appears as well as Olivia on violin and cellolin, backing vocals and design skills. The music falls firmly under the banner of eclectic, but moody, upbeat, lyrical, catchy, weird, soulful and accessible seems to cover it. Acoustic guitars, electric guitars, piano, synths, a Swedish string section, a Swedish horn section, vocoder, piano accordion, electronics, bass, bouzouki, EBow and our friend Torbjörn Svedberg adding a little moody magic as well as a great Swedish name – what are you waiting for? Now ready for preorder on translucent green gatefold vinyl, and CD digipak, with the cover photo taken by my old friend Jan Uddenfeldt who also took the pic on the cover of the reissued Hanging Out In Heaven vinyl. We begin a release campaign where beyond receiving brand new music you can also contribute to the cause by purchasing other items from exotic postcards to house concerts, skype concerts to handwritten & illustrated lyrics, signed prints to intriguing mystery boxes. Here in Musicland we really appreciate your support and I hope you will enjoy ACID RAIN, the second teaser track from the upcoming album (see below).

Thank you to everyone for sharing your Nightjar pictures, keep them coming. You can still order the LP directly from Schoolkids Records here.
NIGHTJAR for RECORD STORE DAY 2020
This year has seen Record Store Day thrown into confusion with the cancellation of the annual April event. The powers that be came up with the idea of having three separate days in August, September and October under the banner of RSD Drops.
My contribution has come in September with the first vinyl edition of my 2008 album Nightjar. It will be released through Schoolkids Records on red vinyl and will be limited to 1000 copies.
Those of you in the know knew that I drew the picture on the cover and with this new gatefold edition there is unseen additional artwork from the same period.
The album contains some live favourites like Feed Your Mind and Lullaby For The Lonely as well as the often mentioned tracks The Sniper and More Is Less. The album is recorded and co-produced by longtime sonic collaborator Dare Mason.
The album seems to live in a genreless universe as it explores different styles from moody to Folk, Pop, Rock, Americana, lost love, grief, romance, hope and politics, and as always, one aspires to convey the songs with poignant lyrics and a memorable melody.
Thanks in advance for any interest you might have in picking up a copy at your local record store on Saturday, September 26th.
