Tricks Up My Sleeve is NPO Radio 2 Top Song!
Wow, what a start to 2016. My new single Tricks Up My Sleeve has barely been out and it’s already been named NPO Radio 2 Top Song! That means it’s the most important record on the station this coming week. The mega-ultra-special-of-the-week disc, so to speak. ;D. Honestly, I couldn’t have started the year better. For those in the know, yes, it’s the song I wrote during the Stud Muffins era. I just didn’t feel the song had reached its full potential yet. When I then played it again at Rob Stenders’ farewell show on 3FM, Rob strongly encouraged me to re-release it. Said and done! There’s a special guest playing on this single too: Aaron Sterling! Now you’re thinking: who? That’s the drummer for John Mayer (hero)!! Through mutual connections I got in touch with him, and I couldn’t resist asking him to play on ‘Tricks’. He even said yes! Incredibly cool.
Ok, it’ll be on Spotify and iTunes very soon. Until then you’ll have to make do with the YouTube version. Would you share it on your Facebook/Twitter? I’d really appreciate it!
Keep requesting it at your favourite radio station by the way, because that’s still necessary if we want to push this one further. Thanks for all your messages, tweets and app messages. Santa Claus is happy!
