My second album covers the topics of life, death, estrangement, mental health and more. All under the guise of quirky power pop.
This track is the first single taken from my forthcoming 2nd album 'These Are The Good Days' and is the perfect Summer banger (even if I do say so myself).
Featuring the singles 'Change Is Needed' and 'Ninety Three Percent' with eighteen of my favourite tracks from 2020-2023. Re-mastered and brought together for your listening pleasure.
I've mixed Pet Shop Boys with morose Disco. Wait, where are you going? I guarantee it will lodge itself in your head though.
This is the first song I've recorded that I've felt confident could stand on it's own. The artwork is of 20 year old me, rehearsing at S.I.R studios in New York with my old band 'thirst'. A lot has changed since then and most was needed.
It’s a moody old photo on the artwork but there’s a mix of emotions across the four tracks in my new E.P. ‘We Forget To Stop’ is about self-reflection, appreciating life and all it’s good stuff but also how fragile it can be.
I’m painfully aware of how my songs and style doesn’t really sit in the current music landscape but I’ve accepted that. I’m happy that I have an outlet for all that stuff that swills around my noggin. Simply put, I march to a different beat.
At the beginning of the 2022 I decided I had got bored of laying out my music out on a grid. I picked up a second hand Tascam 32 track recorder from eBay and went back to my roots. Tracking all instrumentation live (to a click of course, I’m not a savage) on the Tascam, then moving it onto PC to mix down. So if you notice any wobbly bits, good, I meant that!
Finally, following my normal tradition of putting my children to work, the artwork for this release was created by my son Harry. It’s entirely his interpretation of the E.P title and I couldn’t be happier with it.
‘Four For Fore’ brings together four tracks written during some pretty stressful times of my life to date. Stylistically varied and shamelessly influenced by whoever I was listening to at the time, I wouldn’t change a thing. Enjoy.
Almost all of us have had a relationship that broke down. At some point, whether we plan to or not, we start again on that ‘road’.
The cover artwork was designed by my eldest daughter, Poppy. Her brief was simply the E.P title. From that she created this heart shaped ring road and I was blown away by her interpretation.
I gathered together my first five solo songs into an E.P entitled 'Anthems For A Majority'.
It sounds a little big-headed to call any of them anthems but they are songs that celebrate the good and bad bits of life currently (with catchy choruses and harmonies thrown in for good measure) ergo, anthems. Whether the majority of people will like them is another matter though.
If you couldn't tell, I knocked up the album artwork (using a photo of me taken during lockdown) and in the process of tinkering and filtering, ended up ageing myself. Oops.
Got something you're desperate to tell me? Would you like me to play a show somewhere or maybe help you produce your next release? Drop me a line.
