BOOK PRESENTATION ADRIAN BORLAND – THE HANDWRITTEN LYRICS

On Adrians day of death, April 26, will be a new book on Adrian Borland & The Sound.

Special guest; Mike Dudley. (drummer The Sound).

Jean Paul van Mierlo (writer & organisator):
‘The pages offer a fascinating glimpse into the way Adrian worked, but above all they reveal the endless energy and remarkable talent he possessed, not only as a musician, but especially as a lyricist. As Adrian frequently returned to earlier ideas and reworked them, not all of the writings can immediately be recognised as complete or familiar songs.
The book is further enriched by a selection of drawings made by Adrian, as well as other handwritten notes. These range from brief jottings on small pieces of paper to early outlines for future record releases, already containing proposed track sequences.
