Do you ever dream about flying?

Hush My Dear 7 inch
Rockonski. Hush My Dear. 7 inch vinyl record, colour photograph, digital prints, love. 2009.

Rockonski is happy to announce Hush My Dear, a new 7 inch vinyl bedtime record. The record will make its audio debut on Radio Arthur and at an exhibition called Hush My Dear at The Forever Ending Story in Basel, Switzerland on Saturday November 29, 2009, 12:00 - 15:00. The record will be shown with photographs of urban Canada Geese by Antoni Wojtyra.

The edition of Hush My Dear is a group show on vinyl pooling an array of talents.

On the west side of the record, singer Ndidi Onukwulu, originally from Burns Lake, BC and now living in Paris sings a haunting blues song to her heart. Her song, Little Hearts Big Hills is inspired by the pitter patter when she tries to speak French. On the east side is a bedtime story for children of all ages called Flight Start starring celebrated artist Michael Snow as "Gandhi the Goose." Written by Aleck Snow and Antoni Wojtyra, the story pays tribute to Toronto, family, migrants and dreaming. It is written in a manner to aid sleep and to induce flying dreams to the listener. The cover of the record features a photograph from October 26, 2008 by the amazing Cosmo Dean.

Hush My Dear is available for purchase online for $20 + shipping. It will also be available in Toronto at Art Metropole's annual holiday exhibition, Gifts By Artists, December 12 - December 24, 2009.
