RARE PAUL DEMPSEY 'SCARED OF HORSES' ALBUM RE-RELEASED TODAY
In 1998 after the first Something for Kate album was released Paul Dempsey recorded what would technically be his first solo album. Released under the name 'Scared of Horses' and titled An Empty Flight it is a beautiful collection of music written & played by Dempsey featuring the lyrical and vocal talents of Glenn RIchards (Augie March), Jamie Hutchings (Bluebottle Kiss), Heinz Reigler (Not From There), Andrea Prudente (Arrosa), Dik (S:Bahn), Stephanie Ashworth (Sandpit, Something for Kate) and Laura Macfarlane (Ninety-nine).
After selling out its initial pressing in a flash, it has been near impossible to find ever since and subsequently became a rare and highly collectible item. Finally we now have the great pleasure of making it available again via iTunes
