A LIKENESS OF YOU is the first solo release from one of Australia's premier songsmiths, Dan Warner. It features twelve new songs, stories and portraits, including the curse of fading memories in 'Purple Flowers' and the lyrical and melodic childsplay of 'Fairies' (now also with a fantastic film clip). The album was recorded at Craig Pilkington's Audrey Studios late 2004. The list of musicians assembled was an impressive one and included Ian Kitney on drums; Barry Stockley on double bass; Mick Thomas on electric bass; Dave Moll and Dave Evans (The Band Who Knew Too Much) on piano; Charlie Owen, James Black and Al MacInnes on guitars; Jen Anderson on violin; Chris Altmann (The Vandas) on pedal steel; and Michael Barclay (WPA/The Messengers) on backing vocals. "I had the perfect opportunity to make a very relaxed record in my home town and call in all my old friends and favourite players from Melbourne. Some songs are like a family reunion or something, everyone playing and singing along..." says Dan. Music journalist and DJ, Jeff Jenkins, from RRR's 'Off The Record' has dubbed A LIKENESS OF YOU "album of the year". Likewise, Billy Pinnell says "Dan Warner is one of the best songwriters ... anywhere". "...as good a debut solo album as you'll hear anywhere this year." ****1/2 RAY PURVIS, The West Australian "...thoughts and emotions swim up and put themselves on show with exquisite choice and timing."
