Marc Almond – Variete – CD Competition
July 22nd, 2010 by mattPosted in Competitions
Critically acclaimed singer/songwriter Marc Almond is back with this first complete album of self written songs since ‘Open All Night’ over a decade ago. His new CD ‘Variete’ is produced & arranged by Almond himself with the exception of 3 tracks (The Trails of Eyeliner, Bread and Circus and Soho So Long) which are produced and co-arranged by Tris Penna, who produced much of Marc’s 2007 album ‘Stardom Road’.
Almond says ‘The album deals with the themes of changing times, a yearning for simplicity, regret at loss, growing older, loneliness through the eyes of a performer, madness, letting go, acceptance, as well as obsession with nostalgia. For me the past and a sense of history is what gives us soul and humanity, gives us value. I want to celebrate nostalgia’.
We have 3 copies of ‘VARIETE’ to give away. All you need to do is email uk-info@music-jobs.com with the subject title ‘VARIETE COMPETITION’ by 5pm, Monday 26th July. The winners will be drawn at random.
