Here ’tis.  in audio.

And here it is in video form:

I play “My Cecile” and “Water” from the new CD, “Dirty Red Pagan”.

 

CDs available through my website in a few weeks.

Dirty Red Pagan is a band.

Here we have the delicious talents of Marko Marisic on the guitar, Oyku (Queenie) Bilgili on keyboards (two of them!) and that delightful pixie of percussion, Ken Ray Wilemon. And…me.

 

Tonight at Motorco in Durham! Opening for Dopapod. It’s a palindrome. The first “o” is long. Thank god for that.

Very exciting!

All the recording on my end is finished, and the product is now in the hands of the one, the only, Darrell Nutt, another Buffalo expat living in Florida, just like powerhouse drummer Steve Camilleri. I have had the good fortune to work with Marko Marisic on hard guitar parts, Pamela Henderson on backing vocals, Ken Denny helped me to record some acoustic parts and vocals, the wonderful Matt Douglas on saxamaphone…

The title of the CD has changed as well. More on that later, but I got the inspiration from a certain hero of mine from a little band called XTC, big in the day. Still #1 with me. The upshot is that this will be wonderful!

NC peeps: Say NO to Amendment One May 8. Remember: Any love is good love. Why do people hate love?

Welcome to gilbertneal.com

Hi there.

I have created this site to be a place where all the music I’ve ever made can be found. You don’t have to pay anything to hear it. These are all the songs in their entirety. As I add more music to the site, the titles of the respective collections will be added as pages, along with as much of a recollection as I can muster. Maybe I will take my place in the American psyche as the next Susan Boyle, like I was hoping.

I think of my songs as a painter regards her or his art. About 99.999999999% of the world’s population will never hear my music. Most who hear it will not like it. However, it’s good music, and some people do like it. It deserves to be heard and it deserves to be heard by many more people than have currently had the chance. Any time I connect with someone who likes what I have done is a time well-spent.

So as I go there will be more and more content, hopefully to the point where I can say there’s nothing that exists that people cannot click a link and hear for themselves. Every song I write is like one of my children. Some are too smart for their own good, some are young and dumb. Some cannot seem to say what they are trying to say, and some are, well, slow. Some are advanced, some are pretty and some make people uncomfortable. They’re all mine, though, and I cannot disown any of them.
