From Chris’s Facebook:
Chris Helme has just returned from writing and recording his second solo Album in the Yorkshire Dales and is looking very hairy and a little bit crazy. 11 days holed up in a country manor in Bishopdale with his band of drunks was a terrific success. He is currently adding the finishing touches whilst travelling the Uk and Europe. The new album will be released sometime later in the year.
Chris’ first solo album: ‘Ashes’ was released in May 2008, and a hectic year of live shows followed. A break from touring at the start of 2009 gave Chris and his then band ‘The Yards’ the chance to put the finishing touches to their swansong record ‘Imperial Measures’. The Yard’s have since called it a day and this has allowed Chris to concentrate fully on his new record and given him the time to keep up his hectic solo tour schedule.
