John Wesley begins work on next album; end of year polls revealed
Last year John Wesley released his latest album Disconnect to a brilliant reception, and he is pleased to announce he is now working on its follow-up. He comments:
"I have begun sorting through ideas and direction for the next album and have started the process of writing pieces that will come together to form the basis for the album. I will be using much of the same team that recorded the last album and hope to begin actual tracking in the late spring early summer. Until then I will be doing shows in and around Florida and hopefully start working some of the new ideas out in the live set."
John has been receiving a lot of love in the end of year polls, being voted into Prog Magazine's Critics Choice Albums of the Year, as well as one of their top guitarists in the reader's poll.
