The Columbus Memoirs is the third album from Nick Toczek and Signia Alpha. 
​
The vinyl album consists of ten brand new songs including Dignity which was released as a single in January 2022 and Another Shoreline which will be the album’s second single. The music ranges from guitar-driven new wave indie-rock to Zappa-tinged jazz grooves. 
 
Paul Gray (The Damned, Eddie & The Hot Rods, UFO, etc) contributes his distinctive bass to four of the ten tracks. Added to this soundscape are the powerful lyrics of performer-poet and storyteller Nick Toczek.
 
The CD consists of these ten songs plus a further nine sample tracks taken from the two previous Nick Toczek & Signia Alpha albums, Walking The Tightrope (2021) and Shooting The Messenger (2020).The CD consists of these ten songs plus a further nine sample tracks taken from the two previous Nick Toczek & Signia Alpha albums, Walking The Tightrope (2021) and Shooting The Messenger (2020).
