After Halloween
With the coming of the Covid-19 virus, dreamwest's plans for both the short and long-term were put on indefinite hold. Songs, however, don't concern themselves with such inconveniences and won't wait for better days or for the world to "get back to normal," whatever that means.
As such, Bill has continued to write and record much as he has for the past 30 years.
Because he has never been comfortable having his name "out front" - he maintains he remains "a bass player at heart" - the new works will be credited to After Halloween.
His first collection of six songs*, Puppydog Dreamland, are available as FREE DOWNLOADS right here.
*Reverb Nation only shows five songs at a time. But if you click on "All Music" beneath the fifth song ("As Long As I See You"), the sixth song ("Orange Marmalade Reverie - 1968") will be revealed. Then go back to the first song ("Puppydog Dreamland") to hear them in their proper order.
dreamwest
dreamwest began life as the acoustic duo, Bill & Jolanda. In February 2019 they opted to become dreamwest which, in comparison, "trips along softly on the tongue" (Shakespeare).
That September, they were joined by percussionist/vocalist Coen Spek. A week or so later, Coen's guitarist/vocalist (and twin) brother Michiel came on board.
(Followers of the Rotterdam music scene will recognize them as The Dutch Bacon Brothers.)
dreamwest's CD/EP "LIVE! at Coen's" released 01/01/2020!
