new video Don’t Know How To Say Goodbye.

Hello all

Here is the gorgeous video of a gorgeous Mal Pope song, I Don’t Know How To Say Goodbye.

Mal was signed to Elton John’s label as a teenager and recently got his master tapes back - he is duetting with his young self.

 

He asked my boy Frankie if he would play the younger Mal on account of a similar hairdo. Frankie agreed for a ‘crisp 20 and a shandy’.

 

Filmed by the lovely Ian Parsons Tis Done at Sonic One Studios, Llangennech. 

 

Please share far and wide if ya moved to!

 

Thank you.

 

Love Steve

Hello all.

My friend Mal Pope is celebrating 50 years in the music business this year and there’s a concert Swansea Grand Theatre in October (check Mal’s page for details).

You can read all about it below…but Frankie said yes

Can’t wait for you to see the video, it’s very moving.

Steve Balsamo news about ChimpanA

Hello all!

Rob Reed and I are working on some new ChimpanA music.

We did this cover of a Carole King song for a special lockdown concert a few years back organised by music writer, broadcaster and great guy, Paul Sexton. We may rework it for The Chimp album.

Hope you enjoy!

Message from Steve Balsamo 19-02-2023

hello all.

Hope you’re well.

 

My friend Rich MYLAN has written and is starring in an amazing brand new play at Swansea Grand Theatre from March 2 for a limited run.

Tix are available from the box office https://www.swanseagrand.co.uk/article/20707/Sorter

and start at £2 to £14 (we wanted the play to be accessible to anyone who wanted to see it).

It’s a beautiful and brutal play based on Rich’s addiction and recovery. Please come and support new writing, the gorgeous Grand Theatre and Grand Ambition as it is our first original production!

Rob Reed and I as ChimpanA have written and recorded three songs inspired by the play which are sounding fabulous!

Tomorrow Monday 20th Feb, Rich And I will be on BBC Radio Wales after 2PM with Anna Ryder Richardson sitting in for Behnaz Akhgar.

Rich will be talking about his journey through addiction to recovery as the inspiration for the play and I will be talking about the music inspired by his beautiful words.

There will be an exclusive play of a special radio edit of one of the songs, Dreaming Will Kill Us Dead.

Please have a listen in  and please book to come and see the play.

Thanks a million…

Steve xx
