Joe Ely died last month. He was a great singer and songwriter. This morning I listened again to an interview On Fresh Air from 1993. Still as good as I remembered. Did you know he joined a circus?

Breaking The Silence

Been a while…

My new project ‘Breaking The Silence’ is a series of 3 EPs called ‘Spring’, ‘Summer’ and ‘Autumn’.

The first single will be ‘Compass’ on the ‘Spring’ EP which will be released in February 2026.

I’m hoping to play some gigs in Granada and Almeria in 2026.

Song: Buzzard in the Sky.

Not a new recording for #DonRaySongs, but an old one from several years ago. I'm playing the Yamaha acoustic I bought in 1980, a guitar that has a lot of punch.

Here's the link to the song as posted on my new blog:

🇬🇱 Frederik Elsner "Katassinnaanngisaq" — 2020

First spin in the new year is the second purchase I made on my visit to Greenland in November. Signed by the artist I met in Greenland's only record store where he told me that the title translates to "We are Enjoying the Sunshine"...
