Paperboy
I actually liked this album
No, not the game – God, that got boring quickly. At first it was fun, throwing the papers in the mail boxes, dodging other cyclists and construction men and the odd drunk but after a while it just got dull, doing the same thing on every level (by the way, I only lasted about a week as a real paperboy; saved enough money to by Roger Taylor’s Strange Frontier album and then quit).
Anyway, I digress. No, I don’t mean the game, I mean I was in the paper last week. The paper in question was the Bolton News and the article was about my single release – which as you should know by now is called I Can See Everything. The article was good and it was fun to read it but there was one unfortunate ommission – the address of this site.
That wasn’t too bad as it told readers that my single was on sale at iTunes but I realised that the single isn’t that easy to find on iTunes. If you type Ballard into the store search engine you get countless other artists who are much more successful than me, mainly due to them having the talent to have lived longer than me so far. So, the best way to get the single on iTunes is to do a search for the title. Hope that makes things easier for you. Anyway, here’s the article;
Fame!
If you click on it you can read it in full. Might have to do a bit of scrolling, it’s quite large so apologies for my huge face. It’s normally of average size.
Meanwhile in the wide world of Ballard, I’ve spent the weekend recording tracks for my E.P. I spent Saturday recording a new song called So Cruel and today recording a new, more polished version of Time With You. Both are sounding not a million miles away from Fountains Of Wayne, which is never a bad thing. My aim is to get about 9 songs recorded (I’ve got a shortlist of 14 to choose from), put 7 on an E.P. and maybe use the other two as singles or freebies. I’ll keep you all posted about my progress but if you want to be sure you don’t miss the news then join my mailing list. It’s over there <—- on the left!
