Beagley  Anania: Dealing with a very emotional and powerful subject…

Tweet

Says, «The first, full-length collaboration between the wonderfully talented John Beagley and myself is now released .To celebrate, here is the video for one of the first songs we did, called PTSD. It’s been a year of extremely fun, virtual back & forth between London and Berlin…and we are very pleased and proud of the results. It’s a concept album dealing with a very emotional and powerful subject…and the music conveys that. That said and done, John and I graciously present to you…».

John Beagley hails from Aylesbury, Bucks UK and now lives in NW London. In the 90s he was part of the synth pop group So It Is who were nearly signed to Trevor Horn’s ZTT label – losing out to All Saints that year! Johns worked with many great musicians, including Simon Collins, Glass Hammer, Mark Brzezicki, David Cross (King Crimson) Phil Spalding (Seal, Mike Oldfield) David Jackson 

Djsmed says, «Great stuff!! You can hear the labor of love that went into this recording. Although it is unique, there are some nods to 80s era Genesis especially the double tracked drums which propel you through this themed work of art with precise yet organic precision. Add beautifully sung and written lyrics, well placed synth leads and floating, lush pads and layered vocal».
