Farm Hand, the solo moniker of Islet's Mark Daman Thomas, has announced his debut album.
'International Dreams' will arrive on November 3 through Shape Records. Speaking about the title track and its video, he said:
"The lyrics are about my continued desire (now in its 34th year) and preparedness to play international football for Wales."
"The salesman did an absolute number on me as I ended up taking a contract twice as big as I budgeted for. To get my monies worth, I thought I would try and make some music videos. It was meant to be a video of my hand pointing at airplanes - my dreams to go international, you see - but my brother lent me a phone camera tripod. I set that up and started doing some free form dancing. I edited it on iMovie, which involved a lot of Google searching things like "how to make iMovie videos look cool". Turns out Google didn't have the answer. Nevertheless, please enjoy."
Farm Hand will play an album launch show at Spillers Records in Cardiff on November 4 and the Social in London on November 14 as part of a Huw Stephens Presents show.
