Golden Hour Book Two (and CD!)
I’m very pleased to say that, having been asked to contribute a track a good few months back, I was pleasantly surprised to find a copy of the Golden Hour Book Two on my desk on Friday morning (I’m on the compilation CD, slipped into the back cover).
Golden Hour Book II
The book is put out by the publishing arm of the rather splendid Forest Cafe – one of my favourite places, ever. I’ve played some of the best gigs of my life in the forest cafe, at the Edinburgh Fringe with Soundbites (now known as Unstable Promotions), then the next year on the IKTOMS Tour, and by myself for a Golden Hour show (which happen once a month).
This is only the second ever Golden Hour Book and compilation, so I’m incredibly happy to be featured. The track was ‘Goddess of the Rain’, it sits alongside tracks from 19 other acts, including good friends of mine and yours – Robin Grey and Jonny Berliner.
I’m looking forward to settling into the written word too – I know I’ll love what Benjamin Morris and Ryan Van Winkle have to offer for starters. And a big shout out to Ryan, who’s the reason I know about the cafe and what they do. If you’re ever in Edinburgh, make sure to make a stop to Bristo Place and the Forest Cafe – the most supportive artistic community I’ve found.
And if you are feeling flush, and would like to support what the Forest do, please do feel free to buy a book – all the profits go to making more cool artistic projects happen
