Any artist is welcome to send us a track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Thursday morning (or when we receive 200 submissions, whichever is sooner) - and all our moderators, including Tom Robinson, will listen to every track. This is our full inbox from the week beginning Mon 23rd November: from Friday afternoon you'll be able to hear our shortlist and pick your favourites on this week's Listening Post which will appear at freshonthenet.co.uk/batch387

If a track you submitted does not appear in this list, it’s probably because another of your tracks appeared in our Fresh Faves or on the BBC Music Introducing Mixtape during the last three months — we ask that artists featured on either wait three months before resubmitting to give others a chance. We also don’t accept short previews or SoundCloud GO tracks that can only be heard as 30 second previews, and tracks made private after submission, which cannot be included in playlists. You will be able to resubmit the track in future. Tracks that have been previously submitted and tracks from banned artists will also be removed.

Lyrics:
Bright lights, inner city
Your mouth tastes sweet
I get so alone now
I just don't know what I

Feel your getting closer
Feel you inside my head
So scared I could drop this
I just don't know what I like
Know what I like...

Heart aches, lungs are burning
Room seeps sweat and smoke
Whispered I know what's better
I just don't know what I,
know what I, know what I

Woah lead me to the water
Lead me  back to you
Woah lead me to the water
Lead me back to you

Embrace this night for sinners
Know the devils out
Guarded I let him take me
I just don't know what I
Know what I, know what I


Woah Lead me to the water
Lead me  back to you
Woah Lead me to the water
Lead me back to you

Hold me down to the river
Let me lay my head
Hold me down to the river 
Let me lay my head

My Wicked Mind

Lead Me To The Water

Having grown up in the 70's my awareness of history and culture was informed by a mixture of school, TV, books and comics along with influences from friends and family and the wider community. I spent a large part of my life I guess feeling lucky to be British, I mean, who didn't like the British, we had brought so much to the world, let alone as the football chants always went, we won two world wars and one world cup. I had no reason to question these thoughts, that are subtly discouraged when you are young.

Awakening is about the realisation that we need to strive to relearn and restructure our understanding of where we have come from, question more, open our minds to new ideas and truths, and build new perspectives. You can't change what has happened, but at the very least you should know it, understand it and do something to mitigate its effects in the present day.

‘End Credits’ is a nihilistic yet optimistic track about slipping into the unknown of the afterlife. Musically joyous, lyrically dower this track perfectly sums up the highs and lows of realising our human condition as we hopelessly and defiantly trudge towards the end.

End Credits

My Life. Your Life. Our Life is released on Friday December 4 2020. From debut album Distance which is now available wherever you listen: https://ffm.to/distancealbum

Fresh On The Net is a music blog hosted by Tom Robinson and Team Freshnet, offering independent artists an open door and a level playing field for their music. Our inbox is open at http://freshonthenet.co.uk every Monday to Thursday morning - if you share a track with us there it will be heard by every member of our moderation team.

Jack Cade has been performing a mix of his self penned Americana and Folk songs for the last 10 years and is the frontman for The Everyday Sinners. His second solo album 'Bear Bones' is out now

His songs are written about real life, the highs and the lows, and although they have a tendency to sound on the dark side they convey positive messages of redemption, salvation, love and hope. His voice is a rough and broken baritone, no angel on the ears, but powerfully emotive and memorable when heard live.
