I never really looked at recording the record as producing. The whole process felt more like creating a film than a record. Each song was like a scene and the layers of arrangement where like lights, angles and wardrobe.

I confess I had not seen a performance ‘in the round’ before. Basically, all the performers take a seat on the stage and then one at a time they come up and play a song. There were six performers (but one duo, so five ‘acts’) and they each sang three songs.

When I posted the New Music Update for November, I left out one of the finalists – Tony Lovell. Tony writes and performs short, often funny songs and his effort on November 24th got him into the final with the two other performers I mentioned.
