about

Recorded during his time living in rural France, this album is the first album where Jules Maxwell sings most of the songs himself. Much of it was recorded over two evenings in the cafe Relais de la Baie in Noyelles sur Mer, Picardie. The album features Jules along with long time friend and guitarist Steve Jones on most tracks.
