Buy "Lover I'M Sorry" by Tyrone Relph now Taken from the new Promo Video below - only available to Myspace friends till jan 08In July 2004 Tyrone Left his record labels Studio in Belfast to record his new album on a portable recording desk in a small 1 room studio Built behind his house, there were no producers,managers or engineers involved in the creative process. Tyrone said "I've worked in some of the biggest and best studios but there has always been a producer or manager trying to make me sound radio friendly or attractive to a certain demographic. Never have I had the feeling of total artistic freedom till now. The songs on this record are everything to me, its my soul on a plastic disc. I allowed noone other than myself and my band into the sessions. It was so relaxed, maybe sometimes too relaxed. We would all sit in my studio(Bunker Studios) doing what musicians do and when the mood was exactly right then we would record the songs...live. Tyrones new album is so different than anything he has ever done before he almost changed the name he performs and released records under. " We all sat round talking after recording wrapped and we were worried about reconciling the leap from our last record and even considered going out under a band name, but its not about image - its about being honest in your songs and hopefully people will feel it with me."Having split with his record label in November 2004 Tyrone will be releasing the record on his own label - Bunker Influence records (B.I Records) - The split was apparently due to the fact that The new record was a lot darker, heavier and containing numerous expletives. Tyrone said " I didn't set out to write a dark album with cursing all over it - its just the way it came out of me, its an angry record and I was not willing to water it down for any commercial reason"Tyrone will be doing his second nationwide tour on this abum including both solo acoustic shows and shows with his full band. " Its the touring that really gives something back to the people who bought and love the record. We have always been keen on playing live from probably one of my first big shows in Manchesters "In the City" festival in 1998 with such great bands as Happy Mondays and Coldplay till last years tour which we were lucky enough to play support to some of Irelands greatest like Hot House Flowers, The Frank and Walters and Ex Thin Lizzy Member Eric Bell.
