Hello Everyone, I hope that you have all been staying safe and well during this awful pandemic that has swept across the world, changing many things that we have always taken for granted, in some cases I suspect, for ever. Music, though, is still the balm for the weary soul, the lifter of spirits, the words of love and so much more, and it's music that links us together in so many ways. I really appreciate the tremendous support that you all give to me, and I value each and every one of you beyond measure. In many ways, my music would lose it's value if it were not for people like you who support me in what I do and create, so a very big "Thank you" to each and every one of you. Recently I was awarded the accolade of "Bluegrass Artist of the Year" by the Akademia Music Organisation for the 2nd year running, and I was also awarded a lifetime Artist Vision Award for "exceptional talent, originality and vision in the field of music". It makes me feel very humbled by such accolades. Today marks the launch of my remodelled website! You can check it out by going to https://sheerjoymusic.com/colin-gordon-farleigh-2/ On the site you can keep updated with all things to do with both Sheer Joy Music and myself. Also new is the release of a great Country Gospel album on the SJM label by Sheer Joy Music. The tile is "It's All Because Of You" and the album has 11 tracks featuring singers such as Dick Damron, Ernie Rowell, Billy Keeble, Gar McCray and myself. read about it and listen to samples by following this link: https://llalb02041284.hearnow.com/ Keep on staying safe and keep the music flowing! In a couple of months time my new album, 'Friends & Heroes' is due to be released on the SJM label, so keep a lookout for more news about it. If the early mixes that I have heard are anything to go by then I feel certain that you are going to love it! Colin Gordon-Farleigh
