Songwriting Update
Back in late July I spent a week in the Barossa for solo songwriting retreat. The intention was to write material for a new album. It was a successful trip and I returned home with the threads of 11 songs, some more developed than others.
On returning from the retreat I put the project on hold while I finished other projects, but for the last 4-5 weeks I’ve been working through the material to develop them into complete songs and record a basic demo for each. Along the way, I added 2 more; so now I have a pool of 13 tracks for the new album. Luckily, I’m not superstitious. I have no idea if all the songs will make it to the final cut, but that’s why I wanted a decent pool in case some don’t work out.
So next step, after a short break, will be to work on producing each song properly. I’m in no hurry, though I’ve given myself a soft deadline of late March 2022 to finish the album. We’ll see how it goes.
