Water Babies - (Music by Tom Ladds Sound Design by Tom Ottley)

I will most likely ditch the chorus as I hate the chords I'm using, as soon as I figure out what I'm doing with it I'll put the finished version up, but until then here is a rough demo of a new one.

...To Survive

A bittersweet solo track that drifts between imagination and reality. Inspired by the magical lens of childhood wonder, the song paints a world of unicorns, candy canes, and lullabies — while hinting at the effort it takes to keep that world alive.

Lyrics: 
Walking down Bricklane making fun of twins in rain. 
I hope that you remember just the same, as I do every day. 

Valentines we're friends getting caught up in the end, the laughter turns to tears  and then it ends. I've changed your name I'll try to stay the same.

D̶e̶c̶o̶d̶e̶

Getting lost in Cannon Street, Trying to find something to eat, there's curse words on her chest. Your smile is sweet. 
I M̶e̶s̶s̶a̶g̶e̶ ̶r̶e̶d̶a̶c̶t̶e̶d̶ ̶ the day that we first meet. 

Making playlists in the dark. leaving messages was art. I somehow made them always spell your name. I guess we'll always have, the memories that we made in Bricklane.

My Heart

I Was Meant For You (Demo version)

I’m Tom Ladds, a singer-songwriter and producer from Devon, now releasing music as Moose. I’ve played since I was 11, after begging for a Flying V guitar. My dad was a jazz guitarist, my mum a singer, and my grandad worked with the BBC Big Band, so music’s always been part of me. I studied at Platform One Music College and toured in 2007/8 with indie band Kody, fronted by Gareth Icke, playing the Isle of Wight Festival and headlining the Cavern Club. I was offered a deal with The Animal Farm music label but had to turn it down due to personal circumstances. After a break and a knock to my confidence, I began writing again during the pandemic. That led to i Had a Name (iHaN), named after a song about my nan’s dementia. Moose came from a nickname my best mate calls me, and it stuck. My sound blends ambient, acoustic textures with personal stories. I’ve had airplay on BBC Introducing and BBC Radio Devon and was a semi-finalist in the International Song writing Competition.
