In Honour of Our American Friends

In honour of the Thanksgiving holiday our American friends celebrated yesterday, we have some new promotions in the DavidGray.com Shop that will run until the end of the year. If you are in need of a good read for an up-coming Christmas break, check out David Gray – A Biography. This book covers David’s history from his early years in obscurity through the gradual building of support in Ireland to the huge mainstream success of White Ladder. The biography will be 20% off until December 31.

There is no better gift for the music lover in your life than the experience of a David Gray concert. Our second offer will allow your loved ones to gain that experience from the comfort of their living rooms with two DVDs. If you buy the 2010 DVD, Live at the Artists Den, you’ll automatically get 25% off the already discounted Live in Slow Motion DVD.

While you’re in the DavidGray.com Shop, don’t forget to peruse the shelves over in our Sale section to see the classic tour merchandise on sale. Those items will only be available until the stock sells out, so don’t wait too long to pick up that shirt you’ve been eyeing!

Holiday Shipping Cut-off Dates

Planning on treating loved ones to something from the DavidGray.com Shop this holiday season? To help ensure that your gift purchases are delivered in time, please place your orders by Sunday, December 2.

New Discounts In The DavidGray.com Shop

You might have noticed that David is taking a well-deserved break after his September tour dates, but that doesn’t mean we here at DavidGray.com are relaxing too. We’ve been busy tidying up around the site, particularly in the Shop and have discounted a number of classic David Gray CDs, vinyl and merchandise in anticipation of the much-rumoured new album. And the timing couldn’t be better with all those nice people on your holiday shopping list!

Put your honey into one of the few remaining Embroidered Track Jackets! For our UK customers, maybe you want to treat your Mum to the closest thing to being there with David’s Live In Slow Motion DVD? Or maybe you could wrap up a little something for yourself like a 2007 Tour Shirt, available with UK dates or North American dates on the back.

Many of these discounted items are limited in quantity, so now is the time to snap them up before they are gone forever. And keep an eye on the site for more special offers leading up to Christmas!

The Church Studios 2012 - ?

Hi all,

In the light of current interest, I thought it best to spell out my intentions with The Church Studios more clearly.

I bought the studios from Dave Stewart in an act of uncharacteristic extravagance in 2004, as my own personal recording space. I suspected even then that it was madness. But I have since recorded 3 full albums there and a lot of other music besides. It remains a very inspiring place.

However, in the last few years the expense of keeping The Church going has become too much of a burden, so I have invested a lot of time, energy and money in creating a website, upgrading recording equipment etc., all with a view to trying to run it as business. A few people have come through the door, but it is still a country mile from breaking even. In the light of a wider music business in free fall, the chance of selling it on as a working studio seem close to zero. So I am - as partly reported - currently exploring other options.

Firstly, the studio is not presently on the market. I am in the process of making a new record there and intend to take stock when that is done and dusted (some point next year). Recently, I submitted a planning application to Haringey Council concerning a proposal to convert The Church Studios into flats and a commercial/office space.  I am trying to consider all options for if and when I do put the Church on the market, including the fact that sadly, that no ones wants to buy a studio that loses money.

Truly, nothing would please me more than selling The Church on to someone who would like to carry on running it as a music studio.  I am sorry for any disappointment this may cause, and hope that this great place can continue beyond my own personal involvement.
