Here is a press text from the artist >

 Sometime in early 2007, Joe Arthur, who was helping me produce my albums at the time, introduced me to a Cape Town trio named Benguela. I liked them immediately. They were unusual because they played their music from scratch and they were very good at it.  

Blue Anthem is the result of our collaboration that grew from garage rehearsals in Cape Town to Joe's studio in Johannesburg. On some of the tracks, such as Misty 5am, I went along with the boys in a spontaneous flow and for others I threw structure at them. Structure of-course did not bother them. 

It all resulted in Blue Anthem winning for 'best Instrumental Album' at the 2008 SAMA awards.

McCully/Mackay Prog Rock project

Terence McCullagh aka. Tully McCully, has pulled in keyboard specialist Gordon Mackay to partner with him on his first solo album.  Tully and Gordon have performed together in McCully Workshop, but what they are offering this time is very different to the sort of music they do in their band.  Tully started out recording this new material on his own and then saw that it would be appropriate to have an instrument that is featured in solos and special parts of the songs. Tully is a multi-instrumentalist with bass and guitar being his specialities.   Adding Gordon, who is  classically schooled and a  virtuoso electric keyboard player, provided just the right additional elements required for the musical style they are recording.
