As summer is coming to a close, we are releasing a new single, “April 2020” today 🙂 It is from future FLOATINGHOME album, possibly called “The Other Seat Was Taken”. It was written during the corona pandemic in, eh, april 2020, and recorded along the train lines in Berlin as the restrictions were lifting.
The B-side is a song called “The Slave of the Hourglass“: It is a song written for the wonderful short film “Le Temps d’un Sablier” by Belgian filmmaker, Michaël de Nijs. “The Slave of the Hourglass” features Augi Dethier playing on the drums and Simon Bèriaux singing some backing vocals.
Bandcamp are, once again, generously giving artists 100% of proceeds for the day today, 1st may 2020. I am releasing the lord altmont album for the day on our Floatinghome page, if you want to get your hands on it, get it here, get it today 🙂 floatinghome.bandcamp.com/album/lord-altmont
Gillian Welch and a south-facing window 🙂 These are long days… Filled with beautiful music! I hope everyone is staying in, keeping well and slowing to the rythem. I was noodling around with this yesterday, i thought i’d share…
I’m delighted to announce that i’ve been invited to open for WALLIS BIRD on her autumn 2019 “woman” album launch tour… I’ll be leaving the faders and knobs at home for the next couple of months and playing songs solo from our latest album, “dreams for dreamers” – come and say hi, if we pass you by 🙂

There i am, wrapped up in this wonderful new Netflix series when the lead character Moritz, in the deepest moment of his slump, clicks on Floatinghome’s “beyond tomorrow” for some solace – nice 🙂
