“It’s been an amazing experience and something I’ve wanted to do my whole life,” said Frederick.
“It felt like an endurance test at times, because it took so long to complete, but it was definitely worth it in the end. I’m really proud of the finished product.”
Early feedback has been positive.
“Apparently my influences are clear. I’ve been listening to big-sounding rock for years so that’s not surprising,” said Frederick.

Frederick wrote the songs and played all of the instruments on the album, except the drums, with nine of the 10 tracks done by Joe Sleight of Gainsborough band They Say Fall, who also have a record out later this summer.
“The engineers we worked with in London were incredibly talented guys,” added Frederick.
“They’ve worked with artists such as Skunk Anansie, Coldplay, Feeder, Paolo Nutini and the Chemical Brothers, so it was great to have those kind of people on board.”

“Thanks to Joe, my family and a number of brilliant friends, I have fulfilled a lifelong ambition.”
