Tales From the Sea & an Elephant Tree moves through the hip hop grooves of “Workin on the Worm Farm”, the Rockabilly shuffle of “Hank the Wrestling Shark”, the Tom Waits-esque “Terrible Land Where All Bullies Go”, to the
Sergeant Pepper's type brass arrangements on “Charlie the Cannibal Green Pepper”. With the musical boasts and zany humour in this all original album, the non-age-segregated sound will appeal to kids and arrested adolescents.

Some of the amazing musicians featured on this album include Grammy Award Winner (and Mark Knopfler sideman), Tim O'Brien, Ireland's best known traditional Musician, Sharon Shannon, Tom Jones' backing vocalists, Emily & Jessica Staveley-Taylor (The Staves/Tom Jones Band), Bill Shanley (Ray Davies' Guitarist), Éamonn de Barra on keyboards (Damien Dempsey/Slide) and Dave Hingerty on drums (Swell Season/The Frames). There is a co-write with Stephen Housden of the Little River Band, and Gerry co-produced the album with bassist Trevor Hutchinson (The Waterboys).

“Hank the Wrestling Shark” (featured on the album) was awarded the 2010 Grand Prize in the prestigious international John Lennon Songwriting Competition.
