Expanding

New Accelerator has been expanded. We’ve been lucky enough to have Colin Henney play on our recording sessions but it’s been impossible to have him along to regular rehearsals and song writing sessions. Thanks to our fabulous drummer, Bobby, we now have a full time keyboard playing member of the band in Adrian Coles.

Having another instrumentalist capable of playing lead of rhythm parts has made a real difference. We can now play the songs as they sound on record, although it hasn’t taken long for us to start mucking about with arrangements and delving in to all the new sounds and possibilities. We can also integrate the keys into songs as they are being written. There are challenges too, as we find the right sounds and make sure we’re not stepping on each other’s toes.

Exciting times ahead.
