These are live studio recordings from one of my new musical projects, 'Blackwater Lightship'.

Featuring Tom Roberts on drums and Charlie Steele on guitar with myself on vocals and guitar.

Same setlist again but at the end we had a first go at one of my songs from a couple of years ago that I've never played live or with a band! It's called 10 Years and was released on all major streaming platforms in 2020. It's also here on my SoundCloud.

9. Man On The Moon - R.E.M.

These are all Voice Memos that I've found recorded on my iPhone between June 2021 and December 2023.

I've decided to upload them all here so that I've got all my rough sketches and happenings in one place. These are the very first starting points of all songs, just captured on my phone when 'the happening' took place. So they are all very much raw ideas. Some have developed into fuller songs, others have just been left by the wayside. My hope is that putting them here will make me listen to them more and see which ones stand out. It'll also be interesting to see which ones get the most plays / likes.

So no, production. Just raw recordings captured on my phone.

Always Waiting For My Loving - Gotta Make A Change

Tenement Tragedy

Delay Dirt Die

Erotica Veronica

Mid July

These are five tracks we’ve poured ourselves into - emotionally, creatively, and technically. The lyrics are incredibly personal, and we spent a lot of time building up layers with guitars, percussion, and backing vocals. It’s taken real dedication to reach the sound we had in our heads. It’s been a challenge, but the end result feels honest and powerful.
We feel it represents a good cross section of our various sounds and styles and we hope you enjoy!
