As you are probably aware by now we are currently auditioning new band members, however, this is also leading to some spare "non rehearsal" studio time for the current members of Manning; Guy, Kev, Kris and Dave (Julie and Steve don't always rehearse with us, may I add, but are still very much a part of the band)Inspired by a recent holiday, Guy's creative brain has clicked into overdrive and the new material has begun to flow forth, however, unlike previous releases Guy has insisted that this will be a Manning album with more creative input from the live band.
The first sessions have now started and I must say from my point of view it is certainly sounding very good.
We have no title for the new album yet (or at least not one we are willing so share publicly!), but the first song is in the region of 25-30 minutes long at present so expect an epic.
