I’m excited to announce that my debut studio handpan album No Enemy Within is approaching the finish line! After more than 2 and a half years in the studio collaborating with my producer Steve Thornely, we have finished tracking, mixing and I now have the reference master tracks in my hand.

This album release has been a long time coming but I’m very glad that I have not rushed this process. It has been an immense learning experience for me to spend so much time and energy in the studio crafting my original songs and I seriously cannot wait to share the sounds with you – I think you’re going to absolutely love it!

In the next week, I’ll also be launching a Pozible campaign to help me get over the line with mastering and touring costs. The album has been self-funded up to this point but I’m after your support to help secure some funds that will put me in the best position to get this music out to as many people as possible.

I’ll keep you posted with a link when the Pozible campaign goes live (TUES 27 March), however in the meantime, please have a look at the first album promo video which has been beautifully put together by Jonathan Brazil.
