Just a we update to all things Daintee activity wise

‘The Songs of Sunderland’
Gary Dunn and I recently returned to an old stomping ground of our youth named ‘The Bunker’ in Sunderland
The Bunker has seen a lot of changes over the years almost diminishing in the 90’s but somehow new owner Kenny Sanger has helped keep it’s pioneering spirit alive and refreshed through a new generation of youth inspiring this reworked set of songs from a Daintee’s rep between 1980-1982, yes that early ;-)
Recorded @ The Bunker’s very own studios who’s engineer Phil Jackson’s parents were original Sunderland punks
So whilst making these recordings Martin, Gary & Anth Dunn were reminiscing a 46 year span of playing music together and these songs were the horses that drove the first wagon…

The Songs of Sunderland
Side 1. Better Plan, Come back to me, Involved with love, Kisses Blow, Look Down
Side 2. Loui’s, Neon Skies parts 1 & 2, Roll on Summertime, Tremelo Men

Songs Painted
Is a beautiful book of the painted songs of Boat to Bolivia
I was recently interviewed by Worcester artist Juliet Mootz and asked had she ever painted a song, she looked curious so I explained that when I get a song there is always an image that guides me, and if I were a painter the song could have easily been a painting instead
So we set out on an experiment where I sent Juliet each lyric and concept from the songs of Boat to Bolivia album and she set about painting
The only brief I gave her was, paint them how you see and feel them and have fun and that’s what she has done
Juliet enjoyed the journey as to her the album saw here through her twenties and on from college to family
In the book the lyric is laid out alongside the painting on each song and is also available soon at daintees.bandcamp.com £10.00 + P&P
