about

Recorded directly after the lockdown sessions that would produce his acclaimed second full length album Dynasties,

“Utterly Gripping... Musical masterpiece...” (The Music Files)

Scottish Classical/Contemporary Guitarist returns with his latest single 1989.

1989 is a direct continuation from the homemade and nostalgia driven ‘Dynasties’ project. Recorded entirely from home during lockdown in April 2020. The track showcases Cahill’s raw and blistering electric guitar lines, mixed with 90’s inspired lofi hip-hop bass guitar and beats from world renowned drummer Ash Soan and Bassist Daniel Brennan. Subtle, atmospheric Motown inspired percussions from composer/musician Rory Comerford and virtuosic, melancholic soaring lines from Saxophonist Harry Weir (Aku! trio) as the track comes to a close.

Written and produced by Cahill, 1989 is a dedication to the mid 90’s.

Bonus track *

Goodnight My Friend Mr. L was recorded in Lockdown and was the result of an improvised recording session with overdubs added later. The piece takes its name from the Federico García Lorca poem “The Old Lizard.” The piece is dedicated to Sir Terry Frost and Kevin’s ties to the theatre/art production Frost Lorca & Frost’s ’Lorca Suite’.
