Well the new album is done and dusted. Its called Guitar Strings Pen Paper and is available for $14 USD shipped anywhere in the world at www.peterknightmusician.comIts all me. I wrote all the tunes, played and sang everything , mixed mastered, artwork you name it....I even vacuumed and mopped the studio. I think its my best work ever... and I plan on enjoying the solid 90 minutes after completing and releasing an album.. before crippling self doubt about never being able to write anything ever again sets in. Cheers Wiz

and I plan on enjoying the solid 90 minutes after completing and releasing an album.. before crippling self doubt about never being able to write anything ever again sets in. Too real! LOL. I hope you get a least a week or two of buzz in your life out of it. Before crippling doubt sets in.

Now we talk. Nice Webiste clean and informative.
For my taste I would make the big BW picture of you a bit brighter, too dark for me. Pictures play a big role in internetmarketing today - I hope you know a pro phtohographer who helps out. It still makes a diffrence to let pros do the job.
Still miss donation buttons. Still miss the story it needs to tell a story....
Miss prelisten buttons for all songs @20 ø seconds....
I love the mopping part of the studio - humor works and this should be on your website. I may missed that part on the side, I am on a jump out the studio....
Will listen later....

Now I had time to listen to your free download Song.
First of all I like this song too, pure emotion. I am sorry that someone broke your heart, but we all know those things happen in a life time.
Very late in my life I learned to accept the bad feelings. The way you sing the song reminded me on this; - its not nice but its OK with me.- Thats waht I hear between the lines.
Well I can learn something from you... The way you arrange songs is pure simple and loveley at the same time.
One more time. You should colaborate with a profesional distributer. It belongs in movies... thats where you can make some money, it has that deep emotion movie makers seek for.
Thanks for the nice work....
I would love to donate but there is no donation option YET! Subscribed your Newsletter I hope you keep me up about donation posiblties.

But thats the future for all indi artists a mixture of buy-cd stream for free and if you like donate... Nothing wrong to donate an artist we like Franz Schubert had this Mozart had fans who helped.... You can say we go back in time yes, but thats a thing we can push a way.....

I have added a site wide music player to my website... it allows you to hear the first 50 secs off each song from the new album.
So, jump on over and have a free listen.
cheers
