Album title? SHAPESHIFTING
Where did the title of your new album come from? It's the title track.
How many releases do you have now? I have two solo LPs and a handful of EPs, including Alien Zoo and a few other side projects.
How long did it take to write/record? Two-and-a-half years. But possibly lifetimes...
Was anything in particular inspiring you during the making? Sacred shapes and sacred geometry. Also Ryan Adams and analogue recording equipment! Travel is usually also something that gets my songwriting ticking.
What's your favourite song on it? A hard decision between Shapeshifting and Reality Show. I also have a huge soft spot for You Can See Str8.
Will you do anything differently next time? Yeah. I'll never make the same record twice. Next time I'll use loopers and Ableton a lot more. I'm not usually a fan of love songs but... some are gathering.
When and where is your launch/next gig? The iTunes launch party is 17 Sep at Spring Street Social. Starts 8pm and Ari Levi is opening the show. It's free.
