Johnny Arrow & The Cheap Day Returns

MAY SHIZ

Currently Alex is on holiday with his family and Simon and I are mixing the recording from a couple of weeks ago. They’re starting to sound like proper records (emphasis on ‘starting to’) but there’s a lot of work still to be done on them. Also we are starting to think about artwork and how we’re going to push this thing down everyone’s throats. So look forward to that.

On a personal note about the recording, I found it the most enjoyable, productive time I’ve ever had in a studio. Al Heslop is a joy to work with and I think getting Alex in on bass is probably the best decision this band has ever made.

In terms of things coming up, we have a few gigs planned over the next month or so, details of those below. I also have a couple of solo gigs lined up where I will be shitting myself. The first is on Friday night (the 30^th) at the Red Lion, supporting Hello Wembley and Garage Flowers, and the second is on the 15^th May in Newbury. More details on that one to come. I’d really appreciate a bit of support at these as they don’t come around too often and they tend to be a bit more relaxed and boozy than the band’s gigs. Plus I need the moral support singing on my own!
