Sheer Joy Music

Hi Everyone!
I've just released a new single. "We All Need Our Heroes" is taken from my forthcoming Album, "Second Chances" which is due for release at the end of July. I hope that you enjoy listening to it and will share it with as many other folk as possible. It's available for Streaming and Download.
More news about the Album will follow very soon!
Thank you all for your continuing support. It's so important for any artist, especially an emerging artist such as myself, to have good people who support the music and help to push it in the right direction.

Hi Everyone,
I spent a couple of weeks in Nashville recently chilling out with friends, meeting new folk and recording my new album. Lots of great songs on it, from songs made famous by Carl Smith to a whole raft of new tracks. I have included three tracks written by myself, 'We All Need Our Heroes'; 'I Wish Love Hadn't Taught Me How To Cry' and 'If You Ever Go Away', plus a song written recently with Jimmy Payne called 'No Regrets'. I was pleased to have a couple of songs from Terry Doyle Stephenson of Texas, which he wrote with Ronny McCown, 'Ice In My Glass' and 'Have We Been As Far In Love (As We Really Need To Go).
Keep watching out for news of the release date which should be towards the end of July 2018.
I hope that you will all find at least one favourite song once the album comes out!
My best wishes to all of you, and thank you so much for all of your support!

Hi Everyone!
When I receive emails telling me how much my songs are loved it makes me feel very humble. I've just submitted another song by Lauralei for an Akademia Award, and it will be great to win. If that happens then the album would have won four awards for being the Best Jazz song of the month, as well as awards for being Number 1 in the Internet Radio charts. Lauralei has a fantastic voice. I remember when I heard the very first song that she recorded for me how it raised the hairs on the back of my neck. At that moment I knew that the whole team of songwriter, singer, producer and studio technicians had something very special going, and the way in which her album 'Questions' has been received to date proves it.

Of course, none of this would be any good unless people like you supported what we are doing, and so I thank you all most sincerely for your support. I hope you will continue to enjoy my music!

Hi Everyone!
What an exciting start to 2018 when I received two Award plaques for 2 of my songs sung by the fabulous Lauralei, both of which charted in #1 position. The first was a plaque for the song "What Did You Mean?" which held the #1 position on the Power XR charts for the West Coast Radio Network last January, and the second was for the song "Who Do You Dream Of?" which held the #1 position during November 2017 on KMIX Radio, Los Angeles. Both tracks are from her debut album "Questions" which can be purchased from CD Baby at https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/lauralei2
In a couple of months time a singer here in the UK, Victoria Paterson, will be releasing a new album containing five of my songs and the aim is to hit the #1 position on UK Radio station Classic FM. Keep your fingers crossed!
August will be a very special month for me because on 18th August, to celebrate my 75th birthday, there will be a special Retrospective Concert featuring six great singers, all of whom will be singing songs of mine during the evening.
I did say that 2018 would be a special year!
On top of all of that I will be back at Funhouse Studios on Music Row in Nashville to record a full album. it will be made up of some Country Classics together with some new songs which I have written.
All in all, a pretty fabulous year!
