Hi folks.
So, I made a new album thing this year. It's not a "for sale" thing, it's a gratitude thing. It's called "Festival of Change" and I decided to have fun with pseudonyms so I hid behind The Mountain Village in Autumn for this one.
I initially made this album as a thank you gift for some friends who became incredibly important lifelines during the pandemic, with regular Zooms and just nice reminders that I was in fact still part of the human race. With their OK, I'm sharing it with whomever else may be interested.
It's not really "new" new but rather old new. Most of these tunes were built from old motifs, demos and ideas I had sitting around in the mid 90's...back when I still foolishly thought that combining the sound of 90's Yes or Genesis with Bruce Hornsby would be a HUGE hit (they were simpler times, and I was a different sort of simple person).
It's not really what I do anymore, but I'm still really happy with how it turned out and it was a ton of fun to make. A little comfort food from time to time can be fun, n'est ce pas? Anyway, maybe some of you will enjoy it too.
Here are the first couple of tracks. I'll drop the other three as soon as I can. I can also share a download version with anyone who might be interested. Given the "not for sale" nature of the thing I'm a little hesitant to use Bandcamp as a vehicle but maybe I'll change my mind at some point.
As ever, thanks for listening!
JB
