Stephen assembled a disc called That's My Cave Man, featuring live rarities, b-sides and previously unreleased songs. It was available to be purchased direct from him but he has now sold out.
Stephen's latest studio album "Space Travel" was released 25 August 2007. The album was produced by Bill McDonald. For more information,
read the press release (PDF file).
Stephen spent an April Saturday morning at Melbourne's The Forum filming the "In The Big Room" live DVD. That DVD has now been released and includes both the DVD and an audio-only CD. I was acting the part of stills photographer so you can see a bunch of photos on my photography website (or in the artwork of the actual release).
Stephen's solo albums Senso and This Wonderful Life albums have been re-issued through Liberation Records as a double pack with extended liner notes and bonus tracks (different from the previous CD releases).
Stephen has a myspace page which he updates intermittently.
From Bill McDonald: "Just to let you know that the Four Hours sleep album is being released sometime in August [2006] on Popboomerang. The album's called "Love Specifics" and features Stephen, Angie Hart, Charles Jenkins, Paul Kelly and Ollie Olsen on vocals. I've just signed the contract and the cd is being manufactured as I write, so I don't know the exact release date. There is also a myspace site which the guy from popboomerang has set up featuring a song with Angie and one with Stephen." As with "More Of Her", the songs have been written by Stephen and Bill.
Stephen is featured in a chapter of the recently-published book Songwriters Speak, alongside 43 other well known Australian and NZ songwriters.
A publicist from DIG Internet Radio sent me this: "Just thought I should let you know that Stephen Cummings was a part of the Australian contingent for the ABC Blues Festival, and an interview and recording can be seen/heard on the ABC website. This site will remain up after all the other blues broadcasts have finished (Scorsese blues films on TV etc..)". You can find that on this page.
Channel 9 aired their profile of Stephen on 16 May 2004. You can read a summary of it on the "Sunday" website.
Stephen has recorded a song with Martin Armiger (ex-Sports) for the soundtrack of the new ABC TV mini series "Marking Time" written by John Doyle (Roy and HG, Changi). The song is titled "Land of Plenty" and can be found on the official soundtrack album.
