Just a wee update on the Echoes in the Alleyway project from four years ago!
You may have noticed I took down the site link on the menu above, this will be replaced with a nice advert on the blog right.
Jimi is Already Planning the Next Album!
Jimi recently spoke to NME about his plans for the follow up to Odludek.
“I wrote some stuff in Sweden with the guys from Dungen,” Goodwin told NME. “I got together with their guitarist Reine Fiske, who’s just mad, and their former drummer Fred Bjorling, who’s a friend. Dungen are a fucking special band. We did a song called ‘Nails’ in a vintage studio with wall-to-wall valves. I hope to go back with them when I’ve finished touring this summer.

Odludek Chart Placing
Odludek ended the week in the UK album charts at number 39! Great news, I was not expecting the album to trouble the charts at all to be honest, so a good effort and well deserved.
Jimi starts his tour with Elbow this week. For the latest tour dates visit jimigoodwin.com

Jimi at the Guardian

A very cool shot of Jimi performing live at the guardian HQ.
In other news, Odludek proudly sits at #22 on the midweek charts. A very good effort so far I think, considering most folk will have no clue who Jimi Goodwin is. Of course the Doves connection will help, but its a great start. Hopefully the sales remain strong for the rest of the week.

Music OMH 3* Review
The Skinny 3* Review
Soundcheck 5* Review
The Gap 3* Review (In German)
Jimi played a session for Jo Whiley on BBC Radio 2 last night, listen to the full session here. He and his band performed Oh! Whiskey and a really sweet version of the Cedar Room.
Piccadilly Records are now shipping the sold out blue vinyl record, I will put up some pics here once the record arrives at DMB towers!
Odludek Review: Soundcheck
thisissoundcheck.co.uk gives Odludek 5 out of five.
Developing on to a solo career from fonting one of the UK’s most successful yet (unfathomably) still “underground” bands is never an easy feat, especially when your vocals are virtually synonymous with that band’s output. Yet Doves front man Jimi Goodwin gives this a damn good go. From the startling opening to ‘Terracotta Warrior’, he gives the impression that, with Odludek, he wants to carve a path all of his own.
