David Ford - 'I Sincerely Apologise For All The Trouble I've Caused '

Independiente/Columbia Records is set to release "I Sincerely Apologise For All The Trouble I've Caused, " the debut album from singer-songwriter David Ford, on Tuesday, April 25.

David Ford will perform several US gigs in March -- April includingsupport spots for Gomez, Richard Ashcroft, and KT Tunstall.

Originally released in the UK late last year, "I Sincerely Apologise ForAll The Trouble I've Caused" was written, produced and performed in its entirety by David Ford, who recorded the album between October 2004 and February 2005 at home in Eastbourne and Lewes, Sussex, UK, using an Apple G4 computer. Ford, who plays virtually all the instruments on the album, is joined on select tracks by Frances Law (additional vocals), Franco Bidanco (tenor saxophone), and his local football club, Team Sundry (choral voices). Ford's do-it-yourself approach to his music is captured both in his original artwork for the album and in his self-directed video for the album's first UK single, "State Of The Union." Working live in front of a single camera, Ford lays bare his creative process as he performs "State Of The Union" in his basement studio, generating a full-on version of the song loop-by-loop and layer-by-layer in a one-take extended tracking shot filming his impassioned vocals and razor-sharp studio prowess.
