In 2005, Bouillet won a Grammy® award for his production work with Motorhead. He also works with Paul Gilbert, with whom he recently toured as part of G3, along with with Joe Satriani and John Petrucci. He has just finished his third solo instrumental album.



Bruce is now working with the band in the studio on their upcoming album “Americana”. “The band and myself are excited to welcome our good friend Bruce and look forward to a new chapter for us all,” remarked John Payne.



The ASIA Featuring John Payne lineup is:

John Payne (lead vocals, bass)

Bruce Bouillet (guitars, backing vocals)

Erik Norlander (keyboards, backing vocals)

Jay Schellen (drums, backing vocals)



John Payne became the frontman of the supergroup ASIA in 1992 at the invitation of keyboardist Geoff Downes, replacing vocalist/bassist John Wetton. With John Payne fronting the band, ASIA released 8 stunning studio albums, several live albums, a live DVD and toured the world extensively for 14 years.



In 2006, Geoff Downes left the band to reform the 1982 line up for their 25th anniversary. On the 9th of May 2006, John Payne, Geoff Downes, John Wetton, Carl Palmer and Steve Howe contractually agreed that John Payne would continue his 14 year legacy with ASIA as “ASIA Featuring John Payne”.



ASIA Featuring John Payne have been touring in North America since 2008, with noted keyboardist Erik Norlander and progressive rock drummer Jay Schellen. In 2009 the band released an EP entitled “Military Man”. A new studio album entitled “Americana” is planned for release in 2011.

Gonzo Secures Wally Albums For Distribution: New DVD, Live Album and New Studio Album On The Way

Gonzo have secured distribution rights to new reeases from 70's band Wally. Wally were signed to Atlantic in the 70's and the first self titled album was produced by Bob Harris and Rick Wakeman. A second album Valley Gardens was produced solely by Bob Harris.
The band performed many many high profile concerts including a guest slot on the 1974Rick Wakeman Garden Party Concert at Crystal palace.The band also appeared on the Old Grey Whistle Test.

Whilst the band split in the mid seventies they did reform in 2009 and were filmed at a concert in Harrogate which was played as a tribute to former members Pete Cosker and Paul Gerrett who had passed away. The concert was introduced by Bob Harris. The following year the band reformed again and the result was a double Live album entitled To The Urban Man

Since then there has also been a studio album entitled Montpelier which contains some songs that would have gone on to make the proposed third album in the 70's

The deal with Gonzo covers the Live DVD entitled That Was then
The double Live CD To The Urban Man
and
The Studio album Montpelier

Roy Webber and Will Jackson also have a side project away from Wally, Jackson<>Webber and have recorded an album entitled What It Is

This also will be distributed via Gonzo

Roy Webber founder member of Wally is seen here with Gonzo MD Rob Ayling

You can find out more about Wally and see photos of the band and a full biography of all the members at the Wall website here:

Fish Live In Dalkeith

Fish has been enjoying more acoustic dates playing in both the UK and Europe with Foss Paterson on keyboards and Frank Usher on guitar.
last night (4th August) it was a home town gig for Fish as he played in Dalkeith
Gonzo MD Rob Ayling was there and took the photo at the top of this entry.


Rob said
"It is always a pleasure seeing Fish perform and last night was no different. The acoustic set up really sounds great and Fish is singing better than ever in my opinion. The highlight for me was Torch Song and A Gentleman's Excuse Me although it was great to hear Jumpsuit City from the Suits album which was quite evocative for me as Suits was the first Fish album I worked on with Fish and I personally think that Suits is one of Fish's most underrated albums."

"Electric Man" Scottish Independent Film Starring Fish

The trailer for Electric Man, the Edinburgh-set comedy about two comic book store workers who discover the first issue of rare comic in their shop, has been released.

Filmed over four weeks around the city, Electric Man stars former Marillion front man, Fish, alongside a cast of newcomers. Although set in the world of comics, co-writer Scott Mackay was keen to point out that it isn’t targeted at any one demographic:

“Because it’s about comics, initially you might think that it would only have a male audience. But because it’s not about superheroes, and there are relationships and the characters change over the course of the film, with story arcs for each of the characters, we hope it might reach a wider audience.”


You can find more details about the film here

Gonzo MD Rob Ayling and Son Hunter attend Electric Man Preview

Last night Gonzo MD Rob Ayling and his son Hunter went to the exclusive cast and crew screening of Electric Man.

Electric Man is a new scottish independent film which featured the acting talents of Fish. In the film Fish plays the bad guy "Uncle Jimmy". Rob asked Fish what he thought of the finished film he said "its a fun wee film"

Rob Ayling confirms this to be true. Hunter enjoyed it too. . . .

Leslie West!

It has come to the attention of Gonzo that the legendary guitarist Leslie West has been ill recently
Leslie who in addition to enjoying a sucessful solo career has also led the equally legendary rock band Mountain for the last forty two years.

Leslie underwent life-saving surgery on June 17th, when his leg was amputated above the knee.

Gonzo MD Rob Ayling was shocked when he heard of Leslie's hospitalisation

"Leslie has been not only a friend for a number of years but we have also released a number of albums together over the years both with Mountain and in a solo capacity. Whilst it was a shock when I heard of Leslie's hospitalisation I know that Leslie will pull through this with his customary determination and massive sense of humour. In the meantime I am sending him my very best wishes along with those from everyone here at Gonzo for a quick recovery"

Rick Wakeman Live Concert With the English Chamber Choir

Rick Wakeman is guesting with the English Chamber Choir tonight at St James's Church, Piccadilly, London.

This exclusive photo (bove) was taken at the sound check. During one of the breaks Rick chatted with Gonzo MD Rob Ayling saying how much he is looking forward to tonight's concert, especially the performance of "Noah" a piece specially written for the English Chamber Choir.
Rob Aylng said

"Rick has always shown great interest in working with projects that stretch him as a musician which is why he has remained at the top of his game for the last forty plus years. This concert is something I have been looking forward to for some time so much so that I flew back early from America in order to catch this particular concert!"

Dreams of Tall Buildings: Residuum Limited Edition

“Residuum” – 100 gold cassette tapes, housed in a unique individually hand made plastered and painted box, with pointer card and a hand stamped segment of an original 1960’s hand blocked print of William Morris wallpaper.

Originally a commission for the National Trust at the Birmingham Back To Backs, “Residuum” was a collection of unique sound pieces that explored, reflected and exposed the hidden layers of the history contained in each house.

This collection of 5 sound pieces explored the notions of, layers and echoes of the architecture and personal histories of the Back to Back properties which where inhabited from the 1840’s to the 1970’s. Sound Artists Justin Wiggan and Darren Joyce (Dreams Of Tall Buildings) have created unique sound pieces which have a symbolic connection with the layering of materials seen in these houses, the many layers of wall papers, the original coatings of lead paint and stripped back plaster, to re expose in sound the history to it's first use as a new space, a home, a dwelling to it’s last inhabitant.

Dotb have used raw materials from the Back to Back’s by using a hand scanner to scan the walls, floors and original artefacts from each house, they then turned this visual documentation into sound data via computer software to generate a library of raw sound materials, these pieces honour their own heritage and intervene within themselves, mirroring the same way the past inhabitants always recycled material, i.e. old blankets become trousers, old trousers become pillow stuffing or a rug, old news paper becomes draw lining. Each of these pieces also reflect the technological development of the houses, from a slow crawl to a steep curve, from the colossal becoming micro, each house added another layer of technology to the last, i.e stencils turning to wall paper, gas lamps to electric light bulbs, out side water pump to inside plumbed water.

This slow crawl to steep technological curve is also addressed in the physical quality of the sound piece which concludes in a binaural piece of which sounds of playing children, sounds of the workers and of life muted through walls, layering and floating like a slice through the past, peeling away the layers like old wallpaper each having it's own story to tell.
Actor Charlie Sheen has already expressed his interest in this release by singing its praises on his facebook Page!
