about

Mark Remmington returns following his much applauded debut solo release "12 Weeks" |

In his second album project Mark shifts up a gear from singer-songwriter mode to full electronic prog-pop virtual band under the working title "SOFANAUTS"

Mark's debut saw him performing all the instruments in addition to writing and producing the full package. This new Sci-Fi themed electronic, fun, rocking, funky, atmospheric album will feature guest performances of friends from throughout his former career as session guitarist.

First single release "Space Person Blues" drops 27 Dec 2021 with accompanying music video riffing on classic 60's sci fi as well as performance footage.

Mark would call this release more of a mission statement than a single. This song points to whats to come, its a level up and it promises to entertain

Mark is joined by honorary Sofanaut Tor Bjarne Belland on drums for this track. Tor being as at home with Jazz as he is with Metal, and currently in the driving chair for Rock band "Electric High", Mark is proud to say the least to have Tor on board as the first "Sofanaut" to join him off the starting block.

lyrics

My Babe I’ll give you everything

A bird to whistle, and one to sing

Shoot the moon 
from its perch in the sky

But right now
I’m too busy cryin’ 

Like a waterfall

I love you cos’ you’re long and tall

So Babe how can we hang on to a dream

With the Blues looking’ down

On everything?


You could walk amongst the stars

But you’re looking for the shoes

Bathe in the sunlight

But you Sho’ nuff got the Blues

Better find another way

There’s choices left to choose

Break out or break away

But you Sho’ ‘nuff got the Blues

Got the Blues

Got the Blues



You said Babe we’ll have everything

A bird to whistle, and one to sing
With feet on the Moon

Looking down on the sky

You’re enough my love

Take you dreams and fly

Cos’ the world is small

I love my babe so long and tall

Stick around we’ll hang on to a dream

With the Blues looking’ down

On everything



We could walk amongst the stars

You’re still looking for the shoes

Bathe in the sunlight

But you Sho’ nuff got the Blues

Better find another way

Still choices left to choose

Break out or break away

But you Sho’ ‘nuff got the Blues

Got the Blues

Got the Blues

Babe here take everything

Nothing to lose

And all to win

This is how we hang on

To a dream

With the Blues looking down

On Everything



We could walk amongst the stars

While we’re looking for the shoes

Bathe in the sunlight

Sho’ nuff got the Blues

Find another way

Still choices left to choose

Break out and break away

Sho’ ‘nuff got the Blues

Got the Blues 

Got the Blues

Mark Remmington Downham Market, UK

"Marks first album was about roots, family, home, life, love, earthy vibe; but his latest album is electronic, rock, pop, its like some awesome gig in outerspace; think Peter Gabriel, David Bowie, Fun Loving Criminals and Beck all wrapped into one" Nix Dadry.

This is music with a story to tell, that wants to take you on a journey. ... more
