    Silhouette will be our last CD so it is an emotional one for us.
    Due to the realities of streaming and the demise
    of the CD as a format it will no longer be financially viable in the future, so it is the end of an era for us.
    Every musician on this album and their brilliant performances exist because of the generosity of you dear friends.
    When you hear the whole album we hope you will agree it is a worthy time capsule. The list of all the people we need to thank is too numerous to fit on this page but we thank you one and all.
    A special thanks to Doug Edwards, Purl Retsina & Juan, Paul Jackson, Catherine Wishart, Roy & Marion Nicholson, Matt Barletta, Keith and Rachel Milne, Rike Kullack and Maureen Cahill. We would also like to thank Elly Mantzaris and John Durr for the wonderful artwork and pressing of every CD we have made and to Jim Blackfoot and Linda Nagel for the great mics. We could not have made this album without the huge assistance of the world class musicians who played on it.
    This recording would also not be possible without many generous contributions, both privately and from our Indiegogo crowd fundaiser. We can’t thank you enough.
    Nina Vox & Tony King

lyrics

SCRATCH © T.King / K.Ralph 2017

Rules are for the guidance of the wise
and the obedience of any fool
I learned to tell the truth from all the lies
I learned it all when I left school
I’d never come this far from wishing on a star
Once upon a time
I’d be burned as a witch
Just for scratching where I itch

I dance to the beat of my own drum
Squeeze the joy out of the rain
I wasn't put on Earth just to be numb
I’d rather risk it all than feel no pain
In matters of the heart
I’ll never be kept apart
Once upon a time
I’d be burned as a witch
Just for scratching where I itch
Solo outro

about

Beautifully Mad Sydney, Australia

Breathtaking original music reminiscent of the beauty of James Taylor, some honey from Melody Gardot, a lyrical spice of Cohen washed down with some Waits-like humour. A musical flame that licks at the heels of Folk and Jazz
