Great news from our rocking friend (and very, very interesting social commentator), John Bassett.  He has just announced a solo album.  If John’s work with the fabulous Kingbathmat is any indication–and I would bet much of my life savings that it is–this should be excellent.

Here are the details directly from John:

John Bassett, creator and producer of KingBathmat,

is releasing an acoustic prog album this winter, the album will be released under  his own name “John Bassett” and promises to be a subtle, sophisticated album of modern acoustic songs, imbued with melancholic melodies and a progressive slant, you can hear a brief audio snippet from this fortchcoming album at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dtq3hOsMk2Q
A website to support this release will soon be launched at http://www.johnbassett.co.uk and there is a facebook page athttp://www.facebook.com/johnbassettsolo

Also, an announcement of a free Kingbathmat gig in two days.  Once again, jealous about living on this (wrong!) side of the Atlantic strikes your dear progarchy editor.

Kingbathmat Gig this Sunday (Oct 13th) at The Dublin Castle
We will be playing in London, Camden Town this Sunday night (October 13th) at the The Dublin Castleit is Free Entry. Be lovely to see you there.
