The Alarm – Omega

The postman’s been to work today with my delivery of the new album from The Alarm. Omega is available in all stores now and streaming services. This rather wonderful package is a limited edition bundle available on the band’s website. I’ve spoken a lot about the importance of treating yourself. This is my little treat to myself and it’s a thing of beauty for sure.

This album was written and recorded in just 50 days during lockdown last year. An incredible feat. It actually inspired me to try and write some new music too. I had been struggling to write new material for years, but I felt so inspired by this and I came up with two new tracks very quickly. The On The Way Back / Far Far Away release that came out as a result was very successful and a real highlight for me. It has also loosened the song writing shackles and I have written a number of songs since that will feature on the Fields of Dawn album coming soon. The songs I’ve written over the last year are probably the best stuff I have ever written.

My brother with Ruby and the Bowelbabe teddy

My brother is always a fantastic supporter of my fundraising. He recently bought a Bowelbabe teddy bear to give to his friend’s new born daughter, Ruby. Brilliant photo and these teddies make an ideal gift as well as a treat for yourself. The bears have raised over £1250 for the Bowelbabe Fund thanks to the brilliant support. Please keep it coming x
