SPIN ON SPIN – My Collaboration With Beautifully Mad

Hi Friends,  For most of 2012 I was working with Tony King in Beautifully Mad, making music and singing his fabulous songs.
Great song lyrics are a singer’s aphrodisiac! They are my passion.
If you have my album you’ll know what I mean.
The original songs “The Shape of You”  and “So Sue Me” are just two examples of Tony’s brilliance.
So… the result of this collaboration is a new album entitled SPIN and it is available on itunes or you can order it in three dimensional form from www.beautifullymad.com

I am particularly excited by this album as the new Nina songs from it are great fun to perform and suit my bent.
” I Miss Your Gumbo ” and “Nostalgia Ain’t What It Used To Be” are two of my favs.

“I Wish I’d Lived When Django Did” is also on SPIN which has been a favourite of mine and popular at gigs.
” Eye For An Eye” is an exceptional song and a challenge to perform as it has such a powerful message.

“She Kept on Swimming” was a writing collaboration with Tony and I and has a special meaning for us, since we have been made aware of the turtle’s life cycle, and how we can make small changes to help these magnificent creatures of the sea.

There are 13 tracks on the album and I have only discussed the songs I sing!
Tony’s songs are sublime. The performances by the band on the album are FANTASTIC !!!!

Hamish Stuart on drums, Bill Risby on piano and piano accordion, George Washingmachine on violin, Craig Walters on saxophone and guest vocals by Robert Maxwell Jones. Truly Sydney’s creme de la creme.

Latest work by Beautifully Mad and Nina Vox

We will have an official album launch in March 2013.. where? TBA .. I’ll keep you posted
Cheers Nina
