interesting - different, original - liking the vocals and flute

We watched the blood red sun
set on the Crossroads of America
Karla sang with John Mellencamp
Pink Houses blasting from the radio
We drove past unsung heroes living ordinary lives
Pulling shifts in motels, malls and bars
Working to survive

We passed through
mid-size, midwest cities
where confidence and hope
are things of the past
We passed through
mid-size, midwest cities
Through the land of the weary
and the home of the damned

Tacos kept us fed driving down the I-94
eyes glued to the road
Top down, wind in our hair
Adventures waiting to unfold
With every stop and every stay
Met so many souls along the way
the same old story, long hours
and no decent pay

We passed through
mid-size, midwest cities
where confidence and hope
are things of the past
We passed through
mid-size, midwest cities
Through the land of the weary
and the home of the damned

It broke our hearts to see
what was built over centuries
fall apart
before our eyes

We passed through
mid-size, midwest cities
where confidence and hope
are things of the past
We passed through
mid-size, midwest cities
Through the land of the weary
and the home of the damned

Land Of The Weary

I’m inspired by a lot of lofi/slacker type music along with Talking Heads and hip-hop and I guess that comes out here. The song is built around a lofi groove with a hint of G-funk in its DNA, along with perhaps the laziest guitar solo in rock and roll history. 

This track is a fruition of the last few moon’s labour of love. One means of expression I’ve sporadically been pruning and pondering and pruning and pouring a lot of love and frustration into. So, please, soak up the grooves and I hope you enjoy.

Freaky

Heaven To Me

Taken from the latest LP, Corkscrew Soul. 

Written, recorded and produced by me. 

Oh, and it's about you.

About You

JULIET x Max Ovenden 
I wrote this track with max ovenden late last year. 
It’s all about self love, not being so critical of yourself. 
Stop being your own worst enemy,
I chose to put this song out on my 20th birthday 
As I’m entering a new phase in my life and letting go of any pain from my teenage years 
I really trust I’m on my right path and being guided 
I see this song as me going from a caterpillar to a butterfly 🦋 
But most importantly another sign to focus and look after you, stop worrying about everything else! 
marks a year since my debut single 'manifester' it's been an amazing first year of releasing.

Guided

"Sheet Ghost" is more than just a song—it's a haunting reflection on the invisible struggles we face in life. Like the spectral figure draped in a sheet, it delves into themes of abuse, homelessness, and the unraveling of relationships, capturing the feeling of being alone in a crowd or at a party surrounded by familiar faces yet feeling utterly disconnected. Through poignant lyrics and ethereal melodies, "Sheet Ghost" invites listeners to confront the specters of their own hidden turmoil and find solace in the shared experience of navigating life's unseen challenges.

Sheet Ghost

Gushh - Nothing Is Lost

With angular melodies and cascading drums, ‘We Woke The Monster’ is a loud condemnation of every terrible relationship you've ever had. The latest single from Bristol based Shoun Shoun loads up their genre defying playstyle to deal with the effects of gaslighting and emotional abuse. It talks about narcissistic people that have an inflated sense of self-importance, a lack of empathy and use charm and deceit to manipulate the people around them. Affected people begin to question their own sanity and reality.
‘We Woke The Monster’ is about waking up to this reality and walking away.

‘We Woke The Monster’ is due for release April 21st 2024 and will be available on all major streaming platforms.

We Woke The Monster

Every Loss

How Many More?

In a world divided by borders, beliefs, and backgrounds, "Alles Eins" which translates to "All One" in English, seeks to break down barriers and foster a sense of togetherness. Through a melodic fusion of diverse musical influences, this album aims to remind us that at our core, we are all interconnected and unified.
The classical guitar and flute serve as the guiding forces throughout the album, their melodic interplay inviting listeners to embark on a sonic adventure. From the vibrant streets of Berlin to the mystical landscapes of South America, "Alles Eins" takes us on a transcultural pilgrimage, reminding us of the interconnectedness that unites us all.
