Would you like to see: the cover and title for the brand new track that I am releasing in 6 days time?
Brace yourself.
OK, Ready?… ;-)

(You get bonus points if you can work out what the original photograph was of.)
‘Invocation’ will be the very first track that I am releasing from: ‘The Sketches Project’.
It was written and performed almost exclusively with: Acoustic Cello, and Voice. It is beautiful. It is light-filled. It is sensual, and it is Thoroughly Gorgeous. The last movement sounds like: victory and joy dancing in sunlight. ;-)
I honestly cannot wait to hear what you think of it.
Why is it called: ‘Invocation’? How did it come into being? And what does it actually sound like? Good questions, one and all. These, and Many More Things shall be Revealed before the Day of Release.
In fact, in just a few days time on this very blog you will be able to preview a small clip of the actual finished piece. ;-) I will also be revealing: the story behind the track itself, why it was named ‘Invocation’ and, as if that wasn’t enough, there may also be some video of me in the studio…
Until then, what did you think of the title and the cover? Love it? Hate it? Think it spells ‘Satan’ backwards? (It totally doesn’t). Whatever your thoughts I’d love to hear them. Let rip in the comments box below.
See you in a few days. ;-)

That would be great. I would like that A LOT. Everything is very busy, it’s true. But it is all good busy – so I kind of like it. ;-)

Top left appears to be an image of a skeleton. In front of that image appears to be a human like male creature with wild hair. Top right an image of a big dog. Bottom left an image of a young lady. Not sure of yellow patch but I feel like its a burning down of something or a light shinning through these images. Love title, almost feels like its an introspective journey of pulling out experiences from your life and splashingit full force! And the two symbols between the title like a shield or
Protector to allow for the release.
So excited to be a part of this experience;).

The cover looks like a purple or burgundy curtain from a stage, a window, or a room divider. and the patch of yellow is a reflection from a window ?

That is a good guess. ;-)
But wrong on both counts I’m afraid. Fancy another try?

No, that’s is what I see, and probably won’t be able to wipe my prejudice from my mind. Though, I will go back for another look, later.
