Really reminds me of Steve Howe, great intro, thrilling

Definitely sounds like a movie intro, so so cool

Oh boy really reminds me of Moody Blues in here

Hello maestro. :) This piece really transports me!  It's a Real Beauty. Bravo, and here's to 'The Music'!  Cheers! :-D

Beautiful flutes, so soothing to the soul

Semi-Finalist in the Instrumental category in the UK Songwriting Contest 2018

With The North Shore I hope to give a feel of that 'magical interface' between land and sea, a place apart from the hustle and bustle of life where your soul can find peace for a while. A natural world full of wonder for those with the time and inclination to see.  

This track is now part of "The Pilgrims Way Project" exploring the history and natural world of Lindisfarne.

Background
The 'semi-hidden' North Shore of Lindisfarne is driven past by tourists every day, eager to see the 'sites' of the Island in their race against time before the tide cuts them off from the mainland. It is part of the Lindisfarne Natural Nature Reserve and its shifting sands and tides combine to create the 3500 hectares of dunes, saltmarsh and mudflats of the Reserve, home to a fascinating array of birdlife, seals, rare orchids and other wildlife. To experience it you need to spend time on the island, either by choosing to be cut off by an early tide or ideally stay on the island for a while.

The North Shore

A collection of songs, instrumentals and orchestral pieces charting my adventures in home studio recording and production.  All original compositions using voice, acoustic and electric guitar (sometimes using altered tunings), bouzouki, low and high whistles and MIDI instrumentation. 

I'm also using VST instrumentation to create classical compositions and integrating orchestral sounds into my songs and instrumentals.

Links to various instrumental projects and other Social Media links are available below.
