Falling

Track composed for a Christmas short, about a young family spending their first Christmas without mum. Dad is sad. Christmas has all but disappeared. Throughout the show the kids meet strange characters who bring back the Christmas spirit.  It's about grief and hope and family.
 
This track covers the parents meeting, wedding, babies and death. 'The Keeper's Daughter' (thanks Gill Arbuthnott) is the working title until further notice!

Copyright 2012 James Harker. This track is free to download and use - please send me a message for the wav. (All I ask is that you credit me!)

The Keeper's Daughter

Lockdown collaboration of Peter Gabriel's classic 1986 duet with Kate Bush.

Don't Give Up - Peter Gabriel Cover

Short but sweet song, written for Kate Shenton's short 'Pig'. This song fell out of the back of a longer film, 'Gimp', by the same director in 2012.

Free to download.
