‘Beautiful Nothing’ is a collection of music I worked on throughout 2022-23. These songs are written with the diversity of relationships & spirituality in mind.

I would really love to be able to get a cd version of this album.

I too wish this had been issued on CD. But in the absence, I have a big question: Where did you find these credits???? As far as I can tell, James McCartney Ltd. is part of MPL and earthproject is just a distributor. If there was a press release, where did it come from? Better yet, could we see it???
Thanks!

Hi TL Jones, I found the credits on Tidal streaming platform. I haven't seen any press release.

Hi Jules, you're right, there is no physical version of "Beautiful Nothing", which is a shame.

Please Release a CD of James Mccartney's
'Beautiful Nothing'.
Streaming is no substitute for a real listener or a collector, who needs music in his hands.
