World Premiere of ‘Q to the 6 Train’ Film Featuring My Original Score Wednesday September 7th!

As you know, I was chosen to write the music for a beautiful US short film ‘Q to the 6 Train’ and its world premiere has been announced for Wednesday September 7th in NYC. From the press release by film maker G Rodriguez:

It will play on September 7th at 6pm in a block with two other films.  All the films playing have a 9/11 theme, and I think will represent the voice of the generation that’s grown up these past 10 years.  Right now Q To the 6 Train is scheduled to be played first, though these things always change.  There will be a small reception beforehand.

The event is at The Anthology Film Archives, 32 Second Avenue (at 2nd St.) in Manhattan. NewFilmmakers charges a standard admission of $6 that lasts the whole evening, meaning you can watch one film or as many as 12 with just that

Happy May everyone!

Always love this time of year and been keeping very busy and creative here in Manhattan. Been to some some really cool and inspiring music and film events including the launch of the Tribeca Film Festival which debuted the new Cameron Crowe documentary film ‘The Union’ (this was then followed by a live solo appearance by Sir Elton John himself who started the set with two perennial favourites and classics ‘Tiny Dancer’ and a song I’ve been to known to perform ‘Rocket Man’). Also saw The Swell Season Movie and was moved all over again by the heartfelt and passionate music of Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglov.

Last night was at a taping of VH1’s ‘Storytellers’ with Ray LaMontagne. Amazing sound, great band and highlights included a really cool version of one of my favourite Neil Young’s classics ‘Out on the weekend’. There’s just so much to inspire you here!

More news and videos to come, in the meantime check out a cool interview and feature in the May edition of ‘VoluME’ magazine all about live album ‘Lisa Redford Live’. Direct link is here

From Brooklands Radio:
‘There’s another chance to hear last Monday’s show with David Durant and his studio guest Lisa Redford, an English singer song-writer currently living in New York.

Here is what others have to say about this talented chanteuse: “one of our finest singer/songwriters” Bob Harris, BBC Radio 2, “brilliant! Lisa has a great voice” Glenn Tilbrook, Squeeze, “In a sea of smart female singer-songwriters, Lisa Redford is an admiral.? Maverick Magazine, “There is a warmth and welcoming vibe to Redford?s music that really is difficult to resist.” Americana UK 8 out of 10.
