chill 4

It’s the song of the storms I’m cranking the organ tonight 
I’d write up a poem about you but I’m to high
Fly out to see me only to tell me goodbye 
Fly out to see me only to tell me goodbye

Bless you come to my rescue 
Rain on at last onto my mask 
let it possess you
Dance into disaster faster n faster n faster
Run through the dark hold to your heart to chase what your after 

Curse you old friend

goodbye

The daylight is sinking, his energy's slinking 
Slowly down the hillside
The size of the great divide

He's reaching for guidance, a government silence,
Like a roll of the eyes 
Out of sight and out of the mind

The packed food banks and hostel rooms 
A few hundred metres from a young tycoon
So lay down your flowers for the bloom
And the chorus of birds that

Follow me when I don't stand so tall
While these forgotten kids sleep on the floor

He's turfed off of shop fronts
It feels like a manhunt
The spikes on the pavement in the gentrified side of town

Says I'm just looking for traces of familiar faces
'cause it feels like I'm fading 
To a fixture in the background

You're disappearing out of view
Through the gaps of wealth and greed and misfortune
So lay down your flowers for the bloom

Follow me when I don't stand so tall
While these forgotten kids sleep on the floor

We all just wanna make the most of these people we adore 
Before it's all just in our heads

Follow me when I don't stand so tall
While these forgotten kids sleep on the floor
We all just wanna make the most of these people we adore 
Before it's all just in our heads, before it's all just in our heads

Forgotten Kids

You danced in the evenings 
And let down your blonde hair 
I walked in the mornings 
And I wished you were there

You were looking up to me
But I looked above
I was searching for meaning 
And you were searching for love 

I thought that if I showed you 
I could change you, that was wrong 
And now I see your face 
Through my kitchen window 

Out in the wild like a child
Living again by the light of the moon
Seeking a life ten miles from your mind
Something I’ll never find 

We were both growing tired
Of the secrets we kept
You’d sneak me in after midnight
And I’d lay wide awake while you slept

You never followed
When I pulled at your sleeves
I’m only thinking of you I said
But I was thinking of me

I thought that if I showed you 
I could change you, that was wrong 
And now I see your face 
Through my kitchen window 

Out in the wild like a child
Living again by the light of the moon
Seeking a life ten miles from your mind
Something I’ll never find 

Now I see you face 
Through this open window 
I see you as you are 
You’re a shadow in the rain 
And there you shall remain 
A flickering of light 
Forgotten in the day 
And remembered in the night

Gus White offers something truly unique to the alt-folk/roots scene, combining his distinctive voice and songwriting approach with an accomplished guitar style that pays its respects to Nick Drake and John Martyn. His particularly English, melancholic sound is both timeless and contemporary. Gus toured the UK after his debut release in 2017, with his intimate live show attracting both folk and alternative fans. Continuing to hone his craft as a songwriter, performer and producer, Gus is releasing five tracks in 2019. 

Growing up in Wiltshire, Gus’s first exposure to music was learning to sing as a chorister, before discovering rock music and playing in bands at school. During this time, Gus began to discover artists such as Nick Drake, Joni Mitchell and Neil Young, and quickly shifted his focus away from the electric guitar toward the acoustic. In 2013 he moved to Belfast to study Music Technology and Sonic Arts at the prestigious Sonic Arts Research Centre at Queen’s University. Whilst studying, he was introduced to the strong underground Irish folk scene, spearheaded by artists such as Joshua Burnside & Mark Loughrey. His time at university allowed him to experiment sonically. In 2017 Gus release his debut EP entitled True Really Do Come Dreams, inspired by a dream diary that he kept at the time. Whilst deeply rooted in Gus’s warm acoustic sound, his EP experimented with acousmatic elements and electronic samples, all of which were exemplified by his quadraphonic live show that he toured around the UK that year. 

Moving to London in September 2017 to further his studies at Goldsmiths University, Gus quickly became exposed to London’s booming Folk, Roots and Jazz scenes. He began collaborating with a variety of musicians such as Brazilian guitarist Raphael Gimenes, Jazz ensembles Fake Party and Vellichor, and singer-songwriters Laura Frances and Kristin McFadden. A long period of songwriting and performing with Kristin led to the genesis for much of Gus’s musical output this year.
