It's out and about!

So have you heard The Palermo File yet? It's just out and available on iTunes and every other downloadportal. Check out the cover! The artwork's by Jessica de Ligt and it's based on a photo taken by Lidiya Liberman. I'm incredibly pleased with the cool reviews the EP is already getting - check www.daisycools.com to read them - and I hope you'll let me know what you think of the songs as well!

Meanwhile I'm looking forward to being a part of this weeks' shows by The Mirror Conspiracy. On Thursday there's one in Paradiso, Amsterdam and on Sunday you'll be able to enjoy The Mirror Conspiracy in Tivoli de Helling, Utrecht. A few years back we wrote a song called Trees and it has been echoing in my head ever since. Can't wait to sing it again this week onstage with TMC! So be there! :-)

Radio Gigs

As the new single Reset is finding it's way to the radio stations I am headed there myself as well. Accompanied by Vera Jessen Juhrend and her lovely guitar playing that is! From tomorrow onward we'll be playing Reset and more songs from the new EP The Palermo File live on several radio shows. We'll kick it off during NCRV's Music Matters on Radio 2. Have a look at the agenda for exact dates and whereabouts.

Have you seen the Reset artwork yet? Credits go to Jessica de Ligt who's also been working on a brand new design for www.daisycools.com . You can check that out soon, but don't hesitate to go there already and watch the video for Reset and of course the radio & live show dates!

So I reset and I recalculate...

Have you ever felt like you could use a reset? Maybe you did when sweet things turned a little sour or when you simply felt you took a wrong turn somewhere and needed to make a change. There doesn't have to be anything dramatic going on really; a reset is always refreshing. But how do you do it? How do you reset? I was looking for answers to this question while I was in Palermo and being there definitely helped. The single (yes, of course its title is Reset!) is all about that. It's out on Friday. When you hear it, will you tell me what you think about the song? And tell me how you reset! Please! ;-)

Updating The Palermo File!

How are you? Hope you've started this year feeling great and will do so for the rest of the year! It's always worth a try, right?! ;-)

I can't believe it: The Palermo File has been recorded, mixed and mastered! It's been such a crazy ride this time; the writing, the traveling, the recording...everything's been more intense than ever before. And I have a feeling things will continue to be intense...it feels good. I can't wait to have you hear the EP, but I won't be bugging you until the artwork and video are ready. On Friday we'll be shooting the last part of the video for the single Reset at the Turbo Turbo studio and Jessica de Ligt, who's already working on the artwork, is coming by to take some photos. Fun! Remember the cover for The Paris File? She did that one as well. :-)

Keeping you posted.

Happy Holidays!

Hey there! I hope you're ending this year on a happy note. :-)

I'm doing fine over here, feeling all settled in in Rotterdam, but my mind is still lingering in Palermo. A good thing, because I'm still in the middle of recording The Palermo File with producer Chris Grem. The release for the single 'Reset' is set for January. Pretty soon indeed!

To everyone who came to the try-outs so far: thank you!!! They were so much fun and it was great to hear what you think of the new songs! The photo above was taken by Pascal van Beek, during one of the try-outs in Amsterdam, December 10th.

Wishing you happy holidays and all the best for 2012!

Into a Smile - Careclowns Commercial

Earlier this year Monc Music - Arthur Flink & Hielke Praagman - were asked to compose a song for the new Careclowns commercial. Alice Marzano wrote the lyrics to the song. A song, of course, needs to be sung and Monc Music asked me to make sure of that. Maybe you've already seen the commercial, maybe you haven't, but you can hear the entire song Into a Smile on youtube. Like it a lot? You can get it on iTunes. The commercial's produced by Park Amsterdam. Artwork to the song by Rosa Vitalie. Photography by Olaf Blaauw. Nice, huh?
