Updates and downers
Hi all,
If you like my singer-songwriter songs, I suggest you check out my Youtube Channel.

There are plenty of newly written songs to check out since I last sent out a message to subscribers at NM1.
News of our band "The Saturday Blues Project" is not as optimistic. We are still working on the new album. All the material has been written, and we are really pleased with it. However, finding time to actually record the material has proved difficult. This is especially so because our recording engineer, Alex, who is also our saxophonist and keyboard player, is now doing a music degree and so has far less time to dedicate to the album.
However, I hope before summer we will have some good news on that front.
As for gigs and rehearsals - well they have been complicated, not only because of Alex's lack of time but because Marcos and Xavier work shifts at their respective jobs and we seldom seem to be able to find a time when they are both free to attend a rehearsal in the evening (it has to be evening because the rest of us have day jobs.
Oh for the days when bands could make money and we'd not be in this situation, eh?
But as Gilliam Welch sings: "Everything is Free now!" - check that out it's a great song!
Till next time, thanks for your interest in me and the band.
Berni
