Touch (2024)

Another Touch is a journey of self-discovery. It begins with someone who has lost themselves so completely they barely recognise the person in the mirror. Everything is shallow and inconsistent in their life so as to protect them from anything which might hold some true meaning. As the album unfolds so too does the story of our 'hero' who finds new ways to think about, and reflect on their life, and the lessons learned along the way. 'Another Touch' centres around the loves, losses and ups and downs of life and how we think about ourselves and our place within the world. Who are we when the night ends? When everything goes quiet and it is time for us to speak what do we have to say? It's a beautiful and reflective story of tragedy, loss and of finding yourself despite the dark.'

Stop me if you have heard this. It’s 1987. Hollywood, with its style and sounds, is exploding. Five California kids… and a guy from Alabama… working in various bands come together with a shared dream - making it big on the Sunset Strip with their band, RARE TOUCH! Five guys, busting their asses on the stages of The Roxy, The Whisky, Gazzarri’s, and The Troubadour. Five musicians, following the path of their Hollywood heroes, shared the bill with bands such as Julliet, Southgang, Harlot, and many others who were pursuing the same dream. Five guys walking the streets of Hollywood, plastering posters and flyers anywhere they would stick and be seen, hustling to sell tickets to fill the clubs, to make themselves seen and heard. Five guys trying to keep that dream alive in any way possible…
