It seems such a long time since I posted any updates.
We are now well into the new year and I have found the space (mentally and creatively) to put words scribbled down on pieces of paper over the past months into a song!
I’ve made a little video – I admit I’m out of practice tech wise, but with everything going on in the world, I would rather be out and about, and performing live with real people, rather than being limited to an online presence.
Hopefully this song will cheer you up if you’re suffering from the winter blues!
It was inspired by experiences and events on a road trip last year, either side of playing a gig in St Ives. Although the lyrics might sound random and cliched, I did really see the smugglers on a remote beach near Sennen Cove in Cornwall, and often during the trip I felt as if I was trapped in a Tom Waits song.
Songs do tell stories and for me they are my memories – with creativity and a pinch of imagination of course!
