Solo effort

In-Flight Safety keyboardist Daniel Ledwell ('02) will release his first solo effort, Two Over Seven, via Emm Gryner's Dead Daisy Records on Jan. 29.

David wrote, arranged and performed the seven songs on guitar, bass, percussion, trumpet, cello, lap steel, keyboards, glockenspiel and banjo.

He also sang and recorded, produced and mixed Two Over Seven in his Halifax home studio.

Rose Cousins added background vocals to the mellow-sounding folk-inflected indie pop record. Five of the mini-album's seven songs can be previewed on David's MySpace page.

The graduate of Mount A's fine arts program remains a member of In-Flight Safety and continues to paint, draw and design. He recently started work on his first animated music video.

David will perform twice at Halifax's In The Dead Of Winter Festival: on Jan. 30 at the Italian Cultural Centre with Cousins, Jon Brooks and I See Rowboats; and on Feb. 1 at Fred with Steven Bowers and Laura Merrimen.
