By Name. By Nature. - Official Release Details
Dear listeners,
The time has finally come; I am ready to release my debut solo album - By Name. By Nature.
There will be two separate launch dates. One for the CD pre-release, and the other an official release to include vinyl and digital.
Read more to find out how to pre-order and hear the record first!
Two and a half years in the making, it was in September 2017 that I first began producing songs for this album, launching my first single I Need a Change way back in March 2018.
Although it may seem a long time coming, I can at least say that I've kept busy throughout that time, also releasing two albums with John Holden, and one with Zio (all now available from my shop, by the way).
Anyway, I'm pleased to confirm that yesterday I finally sent off the masters for pressing, and the physical CD will soon be in our hands.
CD RELEASE - Friday 5th June 2020
I will bring out the CD in just four weeks time, on the 5th June. You can pre-order it now direct from my shop, where you can also choose to have it signed, or unsigned!
OFFICIAL RELEASE - Friday 7th August 2020
The official release - including vinyl and digital - will take place a couple of months later. So if you'd like to be one of the first to hear the record, I hope you'll grab yourself a copy of the CD.
Oh, and remember, there's also early-access opportunities available to my patrons via Patreon. So please become a patron today if you would like to stream the record in full.
Thank you so much for all the support you've given me. It's really all thanks to you that I've been able to finish this project, and I hope this music becomes as special to you as it is to me.
All my love,
That Joe Payne
