    Max Hunt's debut solo song-based album 'Hope' is now available to stream /download on the official Fragile Bandcamp page.

    Pre-orders for the CD release are also available and include download and streaming of the digital album. CDs will be dispatched from Nov 8th.

    This album features over an hour of new original music in the form of 10 songs recorded during the worst period of the Covid19 Lockdown 2020/21 and is supported by the Hessische Kulturstiftung.

    For Max 'Hope' represents the personal hope of a renaissance in musical culture and is inspired in part by the despair, anger and depression of this time and conversely the hope, enthusiasm and excitement for a better future.

    Other inspirations for 'Hope' include: Vicar's talking to Toads, the Bavarian 'Alte Kath Zwiefache' dance, reoccurring childhood dreams, Dark Age European history, Space flight, Scifi, fantasy, natural sounds, west African Baka polyphonic Yodelling and Languages.

    CDs come in a 4 page full colour printed slim card Digisleeve design package featuring stunning artwork from US artist Steve Mayerson.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Hope via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.     ... more

lyrics

Christian & The Toad

Hopping along in the night, creeping across the lawn
Hide in the corner what's that light, can't be the coming dawn
Sounds from within, a calming voice, coming now from deep inside
I will wait to make my choice and hope alone to meet my guide

Talk to him, come on talk
He's your Friend today
Talk to him, come on talk
Just wanted to say
Thank you, you really made my day so much better because
Of the time that you spent watching me and the goodness that you shared
Of the time that you spent watching me and the goodness that you shared

Singing songs all through the night, helping keep the spirits high
Songs of praise, leading to the light, dancing till the dawn is nigh
Morning comes, a bright new day, who is here, down below
Shaded corner, in a pot-bound way, here are more seeds to sow.

Talk to him, come on talk
He's your Friend today
Talk to him, come on talk
Just wanted to say
Thank you, you really made my day so much better because
Of the time that you spent watching me and the goodness that you shared
Of the time that you spent watching me and the goodness that you shared
