Bigger Than The Sky
CD 2014

Product Description

Back in the late eighties, while out for a ride in the car, I asked my then six-year old daughter Greta "Do you love me?". "Yes" she replied. "How much?" I asked. She thought for a beat and then said "Bigger than the sky".
I thought that was such a wonderful thing to say and I went off and wrote the tune.

My newly recorded version (2014) of "Bigger Than The Sky" is the title track of this album.

The Bonus Tracks:

Now grown-up and a wonderful singer with a big powerful voice, Greta had only previously sung backing vocals for me on my 2008 album 'Smile'. I thought it was now time for Greta to sing a lead. I gave her three songs to learn with the idea that we would choose the best one to feature on this recording. She delivered such an amazing vocal performance I decided to put on all three, adding an incredible soulful conclusion to this album.
