Live life live
Really been slacking off with the blog writing business. So this might be a long one. The gig at Schokoladen went okay. I was pretty nervous, still got a lot of stage fright which will…

I don’t like Mondays… and computers
Been busy trying to rearrange some of my new songs so I can play them live. I wasn’t expecting it to take soooo long, but it does. Ran into some problems today when I realised…

Building blocks
Thursday was the – for now – last day I worked on ‘The Tide’. I wrote some more bits for the string arrangement and added a great middle 8 that adds perfectly to the dramatic…

Leap, no leap
Today has been strictly rehearsing. I thought about bringing full gear to the little gig tomorrow, but decided against it. There’s a piano there and I’ll bring my looper. Pretty low-key. All four songs in…

Yesterday there was no music making at all. This dreaded song was doing my head in so much so that even when I tried my mind just went blank. And just to avoid having to…
