well the day has (finally) arrived and my album Secret Mover is on Soundcloud, Bandcamp and all the streaming services RIGHT NOW. I would just like to say from the bottom of my heart THANK YOU to everyone here on this forum who listened, has been supportive and has offered criticism and feedback over the last year and a bit. I love this place and it has been invaluable to be a part of this community while writing and recording an album.

The album was expertly mastered by @Boydie and I can't thank him or praise him up enough for the great work he has done. I would recommend him to any fellow album-makers.

So, the album is on Soundcloud here:



And it is available for download for free on Bandcamp (or pay what you like) here:

Thank you to all of you again, and thank you in advance for any and all time taken to listen.

Great stuff Jack, hope it's a commercial winner for you, or maybe leads to your next breakthrough step at least.

You are one of the ones to watch on here for sure, what with your terrific vocal, ever improving songwriting skills, plus your live pedigree already at such a young age.

I really hope it works for you! ;)

Thank you very much guys! Much appreciated! @PaulyX let me know if it's a good commuter album! Oh and I am glad you like the song titles. For the first time ever I came up with them first, then wrote the songs to fit.

@Skub Thanks mate! I hope you like it!

@MichaelA I appreciate that mate, thank you. Not sure if it's gonna be a 'breakthrough' right now but I have learned a lot in this process that I will be taking forward.

Well Done Jack

I'll want to take this road too one day.
Good luck with the sales!
It's either this or that, then again it might be the other. 

I can promise you a future of slow decline.

And there you have it.

I'd forgotten how good Secret Mover was. I loved that song. I'll have a listen to the rest of the album when I get the chance. Congrats on finishing this.

Aw thanks @Sterix. It's awesome when a song you make resonates with someone. I hope the rest of the album lives up to expectations

Hi Jack!

What a great album! Nice vocals, both soft and powerful.
Good selection of songs, feels like their all kind of chapters in a book (if that makes any sense).
Big fan of the sounds you got out of the synts.

I hope your album gets heard by all who love popular music
