InsideOutMusic is extremely pleased to announce the signing of Tim Bowness (no-man, Henry Fool, Memories of Machines) for the release of his forthcoming second solo album Abandoned Dancehall Dreams.
Tim had this to say about the signing:
“I’m really looking forward to working with Inside Out for the first time. Abandoned Dancehall Dreams is a departure from my previous solo work and is perhaps more in line with the widescreen, cinematic nature of No-Man’s music. As such, it’s like an exciting new beginning on all fronts.”
InsideOutMusic label-head Thomas Waber adds:
“We are very excited to be working on Tim’s excellent new solo album. We have been fans of his music for a while now and are looking forward to the possibilities that this new partnership can bring.”
Abandoned Dancehall Dreams is slated for a 23rd June 2014 release and was produced by Bowness and mixed by Steven Wilson. It also features performances from Pat Mastelotto (King Crimson), Colin Edwin (Porcupine Tree), Anna Phoebe (Trans-Siberian Orchestra) and members of the no-man live band (Stephen Bennett, Michael Bearpark, Pete Morgan, Steven Wilson, Andrew Booker and Steve Bingham).
Tim Bowness is primarily known as vocalist/co-writer with the band no-man, a long-running collaboration with Steven Wilson (Porcupine Tree). In addition to releasing six studio albums and a documentary DVD with no-man, Tim has worked with popular Italian artist Alice, Robert Fripp, Hugh Hopper (Soft Machine), OSI and Roxy Music’s Phil Manzanera (amongst many others), and is a member of the bands Henry Fool and Memories Of Machines.
