A MUSICIAN has released a new album inspired by his experiences as a father.
Andrew Yeadon says his new album Look Into The Eyes Of The Innocent takes its name from memories of the birth of his two-year-old daughter Isobel.
Mr Yeadon, from Barnard Castle, County Durham, has funded the production of the album himself and has enlisted the help of musicians from across the country to feature on the nine tracks.
His brother Ron, a drummer in Unkle Bob, currently touring with The Proclaimers, has provided all of the percussion and helped produce some of the songs.
It is his second solo album but his fifth including work with his previous bands, Graham the Turtle and Acoustic Groove.
"I was inspired to write a couple of songs when my daughter was just really little," said Mr Yeadon, whose wife Cloedie (corr) is expecting their second child in the coming weeks.

"It was just the intense emotions that having a new born baby provokes, it made me think that everybody started off as this little, tiny thing."
Mr Yeadon, works as a music project co-ordinator for Teesdale Community Resources (TCR) and said he hoped his album would inspire his many students to persevere with making music.
"A lot of my students have bought my album and hopefully it does inspire them to push themselves forward and see what can be done if they try," he said.
Mr Yeadon's new album can be listened to for free on www.andrewyeadon.co.uk, where it can also be bought. The Teesdale Mercury shop in Barnard Castle is also stocking the album, which costs £8, or it can be bought from TCR by calling 01833-690150.
