You will be releasing your debut solo album ‘What Can I Trust, If I Can’t Trust True Love’. How did you want to approach making this album?
I wanted to approach this album with an open heart and with courage to record as natural as one can in a recording studio.

Peter Miles recorded this album at Middle Farm studios

My hometown is Loughton, Essex
Green

Do you have any live performances lined up to support the release?
I will be embarking on a tour across the UK and Germany!
Do you have any favoured stage instruments, effects, pedals?
My acoustic guitar comes with me everywhere I go whether I’m busking or on stage.
One track is ‘At This Table’. What was the inspiration/story behind the song?
It’s about showing someone how beautiful they are not just on the outside but the inside too.
Was it a difficult album to write? Did you work with any co-writers?
It was challenging at times. I often found it difficult to express myself through song and so worked with a few co-writers.
How do you look after your voice?
Lots of hydration. Vocal rest.
Do you tour with a band and if so, who performs with you?
This will be the first tour with my band “The Morning Star”. The band mostly consists of my covers band and a few musical mates I’ve met along the road.
What makes Liam Cromby happy and what makes you unhappy?
Connecting with the world around me through music makes me happy.
