2012 is just around the corner, and there’s been some ups and downs and new faces. Sadly, I think I am better off writing alone as I am not the other half of an amazing duo. I’m just me, and that’s been the main reason why the keyboardist idea didn’t really work out.
But onwards and upwards, I receive my new keyboard tomorrow, and a lot of music creation is going to be happening as I have dreamt of for so long. I’m also planning to make 2012 the year that I make things happen, as I’ve been making excuses for the past 18 months.
I apologize for that. At least, I’ve not cancelled any shows. I just didn’t play any. And as for that? That’s gonna change as well. God, I can’t wait for this year to be over and the new year to start. I will be taking this to the next level, but until then… here’s a few oldies from yours truly… now available on iTunes.
Ahhhh, so remember when I told you that you should watch this space earlier today? Well… I hope you’re watching, because… (enter drumroll here) I would like you all to welcome the newest member to the Dilshini Mendis extravaganza: Mr Bobby Bis on the keys…
We’re working on the EP together now and I cannot wait to share the new sound with you guys. It’s a truly amazing move as I never thought about it and it all happened by chance, but once were recorded and done, we will be back on the road showcasing the EP which will be released through “Nangi’s Records” and distributed at live shows, iTunes and Spotifiy.
Thanks you for all the continuous support.
X,
Dilshini

So, it’s been far too long, and I apologise. BUT I have a LOT to tell you about!
First things first, I am now signed on to a Label… My own. Let’s give it up for the latest Indie label hoping to make a name for itself: Nangi’s Records. Do take a minute and “Like” it on Facebook if you haven’t already:
Secondly, I have now started writing some brand new stuff (It’s been a long drought, as some of you may remember?) and I would like to share the lyrics of a song called “Me & You”. I will be recording a rough version of this and posting it here shortly.
Hope you are all well otherwise?

I hope you are all enjoying the sunshine somewhere! I definitely was in West Kensington yesterday, so I decided to re-record a video for Letter #51 after several comments about the last one. (Mainly not being able to hear the song because of loud drumming.) So here we are!
If you have any more requests, keep them coming! You can contact me directly through the facebook page or you can just CLICK HERE.

Sorry for the delay. Have been awfully busy finding another studio with a great producer to work with and have come to the end of my quest. More details to follow shortly!
If you’re on twitter and want to know what I am up to most of the time… or if you want to just ridicule my humble opinions… then please follow me on Twitter here!
Thank you for being such utter tweeties, and do keep sending me feedback. Big up to all the Canadian fans that have appeared lately, you thank you also for all the downloading, I am deeply touched by the response. It means a lot to me and I am privilidged to be on iPod’s and other various mp3 devices.

Looks like 2011 has been a good start for me as you have downloading like crazy. I’m glad the party season is over for now (although I am still having difficulty waking up in the morning)… but am thoroughly looking forward to celebrating my birthday in February.
If you haven’t done it yet, sign up to the mailing list, and get your password for the Downloads page.
I hope you are all doing well, and this post is just as a thank you for being so supportive in 2010. Let’s hope that 2011 I can offer you some new music, good photos and great videos.
*For those of you that have contacted me and asked about upcoming performances… I am still on a break until the EP is finished. As soon as it’s done, I’ll be back like a blast from the past.
X,
Dilshini
