I present my first song! Motorcycle dreams (recorded with help from Aarron McCallan. Vocals and guitar through one feed).

The song tells the story of the loss of a friend on the roads some years back. It's by no means a finished/polished recording, but here it is!

Enjoy or Ignore!

Motorcycle Dreams

Last year, my parents made a brave decision and our family became blessed with a new member

Although only with us for a few short months before moving to her permanent family, Lily May brought a completely new level of joy and happiness to our already great family. 

I was in England and unable to come home to say goodbye to her, so I wrote this song as both a goodbye and a message for her in the future. 

It's different to the other songs I have to share, but I hope you enjoy it.

Song for Lily May

*UNFINISHED SONG*

The small music venues in Manchester have been vital to me since I moved to the city 5 years ago. 

The first gig I went to in Manchester was in The Star and Garter. I saw one of my all time favourite bands (The Bouncing Souls) for the first time in Moho. I even met my now fiancee at a gig in The Apollo.

The community I am part of calls these small venues home. Unfortunately, more and more venues are closing down and people are finding it harder to book gigs.

This song is not finished, I am not overly happy with the sound of the vocals, we recorded as I was still arranging and writing it, but I have decided to upload it anyway for three reasons:

1) I feel the message and story is important
2) I wanted to pay tribute to The Star and Garter
3)My brother provided an absolutely brilliant solo at the end. 

Enjoy! And support your local venues! Go to gigs!

Star and Garter

For the days you don't feel like facing routine of sitting in traffic, going to work, going to bed and repeat.

This story is for the days we want to escape and switch off from the world! 

Fisherman

We live in a world where we are lied to constantly by the people in charge. Politics seems to operated in a way the the most deceptive party or person becomes most successful, or the biggest showman becomes more trusted than the person with the most honest intentions. 

Magic reflects the idea that the world is one illusion, and that the only way we can change it is by questioning the methods in the tricks!

Sharing the stage for the first time, Chloe and I decided to mark the occasion by covering one of their favourite Christmas songs. 

Debuted December 1st 2016 in Gulliver's venue in Manchester, we are really proud of the result and had an absolute blast learning and playing it.

For those who couldn't make it...Enjoy our recording!
