Standing Stones from Red by Gravity Machine

"This track is about travelling, touring and being part of the global tribe of musicians- all of us, at some point, are "sliding through those towns", somewhere in the world...

Part of it refers to a mind-expanding trip to Canada in 2008, visiting a brother I didn't know I had; being inspired by his perseverance. He came to see Dartmoor in 2009 and I was able to return the gift of his Canadian lakes with Dartmoor's ancient stones- "walking long by the standing stones"

It also refers to another Canadian- this time a powerful, and highly inspirational woman- another "Red" (who managed to find me tickets to see Rush live in Montreal;. She understands, more than anyone I have ever heard, the importance of a female spirit in music. I've only met her a few times...but we need our heroines as well as our heroes.

Then there are my friends that I played for and with, touring around England- other bands, other musical friends- always moving.

Lastly- the long drive across the south, coming home to Dartmoor- Red and daughters, back and forth across the south, carrying our possessions home.

Movement- grounded by those stones".

Emerging from the boulder-strewn depths of Dartmoor, Gravity Machine bring massive groove, soaring, atmospheric vision and a deeply satisfying sound.
