New album by John is available for pre-order.

‘Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with gold’ .As a philosophy, it treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an object, not only is there no attempt to hide the damage, but the repair is literally illuminated’

Events in our life shape who we are. Kintsugi teaches us that when we think we are broken, we can pick up the pieces and with help, put them back together sometimes becoming stronger as a result. We can learn to embrace the flaws and with time and healing, be spiritually repaired’.

Kintsugi features contributions from an array of Prog luminaries;

Iain Hornal, Peter Jones, Sally Minnear and That Joe Payne – vocals

Henry Rogers – drums

Vikram Shankar – keyboards

Dave Bainbridge, Michel St Pere – guitar

Frank Van Essen – violin, drums

Jean Pageau – flute

 ‘I really enjoyed making this album, I feel it reflects my interest in a wide variety of subjects delivered via a rich musical palette. It has some unique soundscapes and instrumentation. When I start writing new material the only criteria I have is that it must surprise and entertain me. I hope that feeling of exploration is conveyed to the listener’
