This is the stunning new debut album by the Oxford, UK based, award winning singer songwriter Sefton.
Sefton was the proud recipient of an Effigy Award for “Acoustic Song Of The Year 2008” for his song “Ricks Seat”. The award was given by the largest online radio show in the world and is distributed right across the USA on ABC Radio Networks. Not a bad first release for a working class boy from Oxford! A compulsive writer, Sefton has slowly but surely been developing his distinctive style and outstanding songwriting ability all the while working as a live sound engineer, most recently with the songwriting legend Gilbert O Sullivan.
Drawing influences from the likes of James Taylor, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, The Band and of course Gilbert (!) Sefton has finally stepped into the spotlight himself with a unique style and a stunning debut record.
Sefton is accompanied by some of the UK’s finest musicians including Calum MacColl ( Kirsty MacColl, Eddi Reader, Robin Gibb) and Mark Walker (Will Young, Kelly Rowland, All Saints)
So step into Seftons world and discover the magic of Skimming Stones for yourself.
Sefton has been quoted as saying :-
´´My Guitar is a cheap phychiatrist!´´
´´Never judge a man before you have walked a mile in his shoes - that way you are a mile away and you have stolen his shoes´´
´´Measuring quality of music by album sales is like measuring digestion by turd length.´´
