Howard Sinclair Joins The Crew

Six months is a long time on the good ship Also Eden. The band have played some of the best attended gigs of their ten-year career, to excellent reviews, taken on Andy Davies as producer and moved close to completing the forthcoming album, [REDACTED], whilst replacing bassist Steve "Bruiser" Dunn with Graham Lane and waving off founding keys maestro Ian Hodson. Finding a replacement for Ian was never going to be easy but that, in itself, gave rise to some radical thoughts about the future shape of the band, involving pedals, guitar synths and more. This forward-looking approach has resulted in the arrival on board of Howard "H" Sinclair.

Bruiser Bows Out, Dan Comes Aboard

It is with considerable sadness that we announce that Steve Dunn is departing Also Eden, after a five-year stint, but it was great that he bowed out on such a high, with excellent gigs at The Peel, Kingston and Danfest in Leicester. The Ship of Theseus that is Also Eden sails on, and bass duties, including work on our forthcoming album, [REDACTED], due for release in May 2013, will be being taken on by Dan Nelson, who has already played for the last couple of years with drummer Lee Nicholas, in The Alliance.

The Robin 2

We had a brilliant evening at The Robin 2 on September 23rd, with Crimson Sky and Mr So & So. As Rich said elsewhere, three different but complementary bands, oodles of brilliant songs and memorable melodies, with the final score: Great Musicians 15, Egos 0, making a tight schedule work like clockwork.
