Insight into our new album in progress

After playing to venues full of music lovers at the Bay of Island festival, your favourite New Zealand Rhythm and Blues band are straight back into rehearsals, putting together our new studio album.
3 songs already in our live playlist, and ready to record are Howlin Wolf, Son of a Bitch, and PHD In Stupidity.
Another new song which we tried out at the festival for the first time is "It Wasn't Me." We are now quite happy with this track also.
Another 3 songs are also well underway and almost made it to the playlist at the festival, but as we have never played at the Bay of Islands before, we wanted to hit the audiences with our best, tried and true numbers, and give them a taste of the Brilleaux show, so we decided not to treat them as guineapigs and left them out.
These tracks are: I wonder Why (I Cant Get No Sleep) - a track I co-wrote with Derek of Kokomo, and which appears on their last album, although Brilleaux intend to give it quite a different treatment to the Kokomo boys and girls.
Seven Shades of Surprised, and Angry Young Man. A track entitled "I Love Girls" is also undergoing treatment, and is going to be lots of fun to record I can tell now, as it is very progressive, and features a couple of interesting musical concepts that we havent used before.

We intend the new album to feature a lot of Piano and keyboards courtesy of our friend Tim Julian, who appears on our LIVE at the Colosseum album.
