JUNE 2000

Damian will be recording a single on July 7th with Alex Sharpe, a name familiar to those people who saw the Les Miserables UK Tour. This song, is the last song that John Lennon wrote and one that Damian has wanted to record for many years. It is called "Grow Old Along with Me'.The BBC have shown interest in making a documentary of the recording and as soon as we know a date for transmission, it will be added to this page. At the same session, Damian will be recording two other songs, one new track called 'In a Word' and a track from 'Cosmas', 'Just the way it goes'.

Damian is still busy trying to find the time to work on his solo projects. He has two definite concerts coming up. 

On the 15th of July, he will be appearing at Glastonbury Abbey fronting Rick Wakeman's band. Cliff Richard will also be appearing

On the 22nd of July, Damian will be in a concert show singing two John Lennon numbers with the Sheffield City Youth Orchestra.

Damian is also involved in a tribute album to 'Yes'.

MAY 2000

The two new Aryreon projects were released on the 22nd and have been getting excellent reviews.

Damian is working on solo projects at the moment and as soon as there is any definate news about any new releases,  we will let you know via this site.

APRIL 2000

Since the UK tour of Les Misérables closed, Damian has been recording with other artists. The most important project so far has been his involvement in the two new CDs of the well known Dutch artist Aryeon. The first is called 'Universal Migrator, Part 1 The Dream Sequence'.  On this album Damian sings a very soft and emotional song called 'And the Druids Turn to Stone'. Arjen says that he has never heard Damian sing so well and wants to use him on all his future projects.

Damian recorded a second album for Aryeon, 'Universal Migrator, Part 2 Flight of the Migrator'. On this CD, Damian sang backing vocals on the song 'Dawn of a Million Souls'. The release date for both these albums is May 22nd, 2000.
