Released this little EP a year ago. The last track has always been a Christmas song for me, even though it's lyrics aren't Christmassy. I wrote an early version of it in the winter time, dog-sitting in a cold apartment in Athens. Please enjoy 🙏 🎄 youtu.be/5KNeo-GjiNU?si…

A year since I released my 1st EP. I didn't know at the time that December is a bad time to release new music, but what can you do?! The final track of the EP is my attempt at a Christmas song, in vibe, not lyrics, no sleigh bells, but some Greek swearing youtu.be/5KNeo-GjiNU?si…

Some demo bits I'm working on. Not sure what the next release will sound like, or if either of these will make the cut, still in the throwing everything at the wall stage. I'd say it's a 40/60 painful/enjoyable process 🥲

I’ve started to say “please give this a moment if you can, thank you for your time” or something similar (I’ve yet to perfect it) when sending out songs now, cos there are SO many good tunes coming out now. Kinda hard if you don’t have a push behind you.. youtu.be/yIorow-unZE

I released my second single 'Sunday' a year ago. Here's a little break down of how it got from badly sung, fuzzy, half-done demo to the final version which was liberally sprinkled with magic studio dust & amazing drumming by @Peter_Ashmore

I made rough demos you hear here, then Peter had the idea of leaving space to build the song up after the final chorus by layering up harmonies & drums. Peter made the shimmering noises in the background by manipulating my guitar sound with a Watkins Copicat tape delay.

Myles Manley @whelanslive last night was so good. Spontaneous crowd harmonies & backing vocals for final song 'Pay me what I'm worth' was the cherry on top. He's playing Little Whelans again on Monday.

It's one year since my first release came out. I remember the week before I got serious cold feet & wanted for stop the whole thing, but then, the day it came out messages started to pour in from friends & family & strangers & I was buzzing...

I had no clue how to promote, do social media for music, make videos, contact radio or journalists, but I did my best & learned loads in the process I haven't got the live side of things sorted yet, but I will, & I have loads of new music written that I can't wait to get out...

that set the feel for the final part. @Peter_Ashmore suggested we stick on pump organ & my friend @saltingsmusic played it. We recorded the foot pedals pumping air which you can really hear at the end. I had to record the harmonica parts in 30 second chunks due to crap lungs.

I can't overstate how nice it is to see your music get played. So much goes into writing, making & releasing music, with ups & downs of feelings about the songs from 'this is great' to 'maybe this is shit' to 'no, I like this'. You need a bit of external validation now & then.
