Chris Anderson
from Crayola Lectern
told Bluemood about his
new music and his recent
gig with the North Sea
Radio Orchestra in March:
"My songs were very popular
and I played 3 new ones,
one of which was born in
its entirety less than a week
before the show and
arguably the best song
I have done yet. It is called
"Slow Down". I managed to
limp my way through it
on the grand piano with
the added help of trumpeter
Alistair Strachan and Jon
Poole on casiotone. Another
one, "I Forgot My Big Idea",
is somewhat more
complicated and goes off
all over the place but ends
up with a very catchy yet
unexpected refrain. Has
taken 3 months to write
and learn to play (every day).
The other new one,
"Awesome View", came
instantaneously a few weeks
ago and is instrumental."

"Damo Suzuki is some kind

musicians (we'd never met
before, let alone rehearsed)
into playing good, exciting,
confident music. He's a
lovely guy. A real nomad."
