New EP: Tabletop Sale

I’ve released a new eight-track EP called ‘Tabletop Sale’.

 

1. Tabletop sale
2. All that’s left of the summer
3. Dancing
4. Another night on the town
5. Center Parcs
6. Digital storytelling
7. Cincinnati Express
8. Tabletops

The only instruments used on this record were a tiny Yamaha Portastasound keyboard (£6 on ebay) and an acoustic guitar. I did, however, use some laptop software rather than the 4-track cassette recorder. As a result there’s less singing and proper songs and more messing around.

Acid House Kings – Music Sounds Better Remixed EP

I’ve provided a remix for a new EP by the Acid House Kings.

Totally Acoustic: the sixth gig

Last Monday was the sixth Sunny Intervals live appearance -the first one  since summer 2008. It was a wonderful festive occasion at MJ Hibbett’s Totally Acoustic night in London.

Autumn/Winter Collection

There’s a new Sunny Intervals EP called ‘Autumn/Winter Collection’ which is free to download.  

It includes an autumnal song with ukuleles, a couple of Christmas songs, a song vaguely set in the winter and a song about the sea that has no connection with autumn or winter! It was recorded, as ever, on a four track cassette player.

The tracklisting is:
1. As Summer Draws In
2. Winding Down For Christmas
3. Dilated Pupils
4. Stay Cool At Christmas
5. Seaview Hotel

You  can download the MP3s for free individually from:
Sunny Intervals - Autumn/Winter Collection (Last.fm)

Or download the whole EP free as a compressed (zip) folder from:
Sunny Intervals - Autumn/Winter Collection (Mediafire)

Hope you enjoy the songs!

Totally Acoustic gig: Tuesday 21 December

I’m very pleased to be playing at Totally Acoustic on Tuesday 21 December.

These gigs are hosted by the wonderful MJ Hibbett and the idea, as the title suggests, is that everyone plays without amplification or microphones etc. As if that wasn’t scary enough, the gigs are also recorded and released as a podcast later that week. If you pop over to the Totally Acoustic podcast page you can download MP3 free podcasts featuring Pete Green, Frankie Machine, Jimmy from the Bobby McGees, MJ Hibbett and lots more people.

Chris T-T and MJ Hibbett will also be playing on 21 December. As it’s Christmas, I’ll probably play a couple of Christmas songs, a couple of Sunny Intervals songs and maybe a song or two from my other band.

It’s been two-and-a-half years since I last played a gig on my own, so I’d better start practicing! The gig takes place upstairs at The Lamb, on 94 Lamb’s Conduit Street, London WC1N 3LZ. The first act starts at 7.30pm and it’s all finished at a very sociable 9.30pm. These gigs are always very fun and friendly occasions, so I hope you can make it along!

Sunny Intervals CDs now available!

For the first time since 2007, I’m pleased to say there are now a limited number of Sunny Intervals CDs available. I’ve made CDs for the two most recent EPs (Sidewalk Cafe and Obstacles) and the mini-album (Signposts).

Remark Records compilation

The Sunny Intervals song Cincinnati appears on the Remark Records compilation  Vol. 1 Music For Fun.

Remark Records is a new Swedish record label interested in indiepop, lo-fi and folk-rock music. This CD features bands from around the world, inluding Erik A Ström, The Muppheads, Hollow Nerves and Swansea Recreation Centre.

Series Two: retrospective compilation

I’m pleased to say that the Sunny Intervals track ‘Falling By The Side’ appears on a Retrospective Compilation 3 by Series Two Records.

Lost Tape Sounds: ukulele compilation

The newest Sunny Intervals song ‘As Summer Draws In’ appears on a ukulele compilation from Lost Tape Sounds called Ukulele, Mekulele, Wekulele.

A second Sunny Intervals video…

As heavily hinted at in a previous post, I have indeed made another video. This time it’s for a new song called ‘As summer draws in’.

It should be called ‘As the summer draws in’, but I made a mistake tagging the initial MP3, then sent it to someone who may use it for something, and then it all became too complicated to change it. There’s a very low attention-to-detail threshold around these parts!

There will hopefully be some more news relating to this song shortly. Hope you enjoy the video!
