This seems crazy- i have not written a post up here for over a year. So much has happened in the last year, yet i have no written page to show for it so.......

All i can say is that I will have a new album for release at the end of the year. i will be heading to the studio in Sept at the Sound cafe again with Fab davy gray, engineering. paul Gilbody on double bass, Hugh Martin on drums, Colin Steele on trumpet and Julie Veitch singing with me. i am really looking forward to this album. I wrote the majority of it on th falkland islands and it is wind swept and touches something beautiful and simple inside me.

I will be keeping you posted and next year will be full of gigs, touring and getting the album to you. If anyway has any questions, or wants too pre-order the album, please drop me an email on andineate@yahoo.com.

till then

Hi,

Just some more info for those of you, who will be coming to see The Andi Neate Band in Ullapool.

The concerts, running concurrently on October 2nd and 3rd, will take place in the Macphail Theatre and Ullapool Village Hall.  Both will be presented by former UHS students.  Although there will be music in various styles in both concerts, one will be themed around singer-songwriters and popular/rock musicians, and one around traditional and Gaelic music.  In addition to solo performances by a Mod gold medal-winner and prize-winning pipers, a major highlight of the traditional concert will be collaboration between former and current UHS students to perform several songs and pieces of instrumental music.

A cornerstone of this concert will be the project's title song.  Tillidh Mi Dhachaidh was written by Calum MacDonald in the early days of his band RunRig.   The song sums up the feelings of a young person growing up in the Highlands and moving out into the wider world, yet always aware of the richness of home and tradition.  A group of UHS musicians recorded the song in 1998, and Calum has kindly agreed to let us use this as the theme for our project.

The singer/songwriter concert will feature former students who have gone on to record their own albums as well as students who have left school more recently and are involved in rock bands and DJ work.
