Recent Work
Following the disbanding of The Slowdown Family and the Cape Farewell voyage, Frost discovered that Lavolta had become a part of Columbia Records, and his second album would be made for them. He travelled to New York to make the record with Victor Van Vugt at Chelsea's Stratosphere Sound.
Upon completion of the album, Frost was dropped by Columbia near the end of 2008. However, he managed to negotiate terms to leave the label with the master tapes of the album.
The album, "We Ain't Got Money, Honey, But We Got Rain" was released in the UK on September 28, 2009 on Emperor Records, Frost's own label. It was named after a poem of the same name by the poet, novelist, and short story writer Charles Bukowski. It also contains several collaborations with singer-songwriter Ed Harcourt, including "Your Hand In Mine", a duet with Martha Wainwright.

Famous quotes containing the word work:
“The modern artist must live by craft and violence. His gods are violent gods.... Those artists, so called, whose work does not show this strife, are uninteresting.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
“However diligent she may be, however dedicated, no mother can escape the larger influences of culture, biology, fate . . . until we can actually live in a society where mothers and children genuinely matter, ours is an essentially powerless responsibility. Mothers carry out most of the work orders, but most of the rules governing our lives are shaped by outside influences.”
—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
