I am on an album, a proper one, for sale in actual shops (well, itunes at least) and everything.
It’s by the lovely Helen Arney and Paul Richards and is called “It’s Going To Be An Awkward Christmas, Darling”
Here is some blurb…
One family’s uncomfortably suburban December 25th, perfectly captured in 11 original songs. Stories of holiday disasters, endless games of Monopoly, traditional family arguments and an irrational fear of snowmen all conspire to make your Winterval sound wonderful.
Wry, humorous, lyrically intelligent and unashamedly poignant — it’s perfect for Christmas fanatics and Humbugs alike.
If Alan Bennett and Victoria Wood wrote a Christmas album, it would sound something like this…
I appear as the lovelorn fool on the track “Office Party” (typecasting, I know). And this got played on 6music on Saturday just gone, so, I am officially a popstar.
Here you can have a listen to the album…
Then go buy the thing, yeh!
Out now on iTunes, Play.com and limited edition CD: http://helenarney.com/awkward-christmas for more info.
Happy xmas all
