Yes, we’ve been busy for the past couple of years with another album, and it’s our first release for Eclipse Music – a new page in our book for sure! The new album, EBB/FLOW (pronounced either “Ebb OR Flow” or “Ebb AND Flow”, depending on your preference), features eight new songs; another versatile bunch, as you probably will have come to expect by now. It was preceded by two online singles “My Recliner” (May 31) and “Ferry Cross the Aegean Sea” (Sept 21), and the rest of the album is just as much of an adventure as the first two glimpses into it.

All the artwork, for both singles and the album itself, were made by Ari Hietala. The album was recorded, mixed and mastered by Timo Rehtonen (with some bits recorded elsewhere by Jaakko Niemi).

EBB/FLOW can be found from the usual streaming services (Spotify, Apple Music etc.) or bought from various well-stocked record stores, such as Levykauppa X. Enjoy!

It’s been a long time coming, but it’s finally here – a new Jacques Daniels Project album released today, on the 1st of June, 2021. Seven very different songs with very different feel from anything we’ve done before came from various times, various places and various states of mind, all communicating various states of distance. We give special thanks to our special guest musicians: Minna Siitonen throatsinging on “Bonedigger”, Jarmo Saitajoki playing upright bass on “Old Folks’ Home”, Kennedy Pupe co-writing and singing on “If” and Moccamaster for the coffee. Also, extra special thanks to Pekka Laine at East Sound Studios for his continuous excellent mixing work.

Seasonal greetings from JDP! In addition to some minor website maintenance, we have managed to whip out a couple of new tunes for everyone’s enjoyment!

The more seasonal track, “Not A Christmas Song” is a fairly traditional Christmas composition, and can be loosely interpreted as a faux-protest song about the modern commercial nature of Christmas, and has a low-budget video shot in the immediate surroundings of Santa Claus Village just a bit north of our home town of Rovaniemi.

The less seasonal track, “I Don’t Listen To The Radio” is another venture into the traditional doo-wop sound, with a very obvious message, which can be taken with a grain of salt. Or not. If the Christmas video was low-budget, this one has zero budget.

These two tracks are both now available on your favourite streaming service, as well as iTunes/Apple Music, Amazon Music, Google Play and then some. Happy holidays, everybody!

Our new single “Ready For The Future” is out now! It can be listened to on Spotify :

and you can also purchase it on iTunes. Available in other stores soon, along with a traditional cheap lyric video on YouTube!

 

 

Getting close now!

3 down, 1 to go.

Wait for it…

Got a new epic song coming soon.

It’s been a long time coming, but our official www.jacquesdanielsproject.com website is back online, and look at how new and shiny it is! Gotta love WordPress. This new website will not only contain most of the things our previous ancient site had, but it will also be acting as a blog, whenever there’s anything worth blogging about. Stay tuned, we’ve only just begun!
