nice song with many things that i like in your realisation.

Such deep production beauty in this creative pop rocker, wonderful harmonies and just a wonderful blend of textures and feel. Well done Phil! Durge

Fab sound on this great song, Phil! Love that bank of horns and with those obscure yet suggestive lyrics and the enthusiastically swinging harmonies, is giving me that Steely Dan vibe : )

Very nicely captured mood! Good horns and polyphonic vocals!

that brass section sounds amazing and gives the track so much fun and power.

I very much enjoyed all the brass arrangements from you, your excellent guitar chops and all the other details, which make this song so beautiful. And yes, you envy me with your yacht … 😀🎸🔥❤️

Laughing.... complex lyrics and complicated imagery... the sublime with the straightforward.... and some just for the sounds. Your work is ALWAYS interesting, Phil.

AMBROSIA COAST

Driving down the coast road
Looking for Ingrid’s hat
It doesn’t matter if we find the beach or not 
With it raining like that

Checking the important ones
Went out before midnight
I’d like to think we could be either in or out
To hit the waves like that

Oh can we do it?
Oh can we do it tonight?
Oh can we do it?
Can we do it tonight?

They came in in inflatables
But they weren’t looking for Ingrid’s hat
We spent some money dressing up the corpse
No-one had learned a move like that

Checking the important ones
Went out before midnight
I’d like to think we could be either in or out
To hit the waves like that

Oh can we do it?
Can we do it tonight?
Oh can we do it?
Can we do it tonight?

But we don’t wanna see where the birdie goes

Give me emotion (bow-wow-wow)
Lend me the potion (bow-wow-wow)
Rub me in lotion (bow-wow-wow)
Give me the motion (bow-wow-wow)
We need ambrosia
Because it’s cosier
Feed the gods with that bowl 
Feed the gods with that bowl, there...

Driving down the coast road 
Looking for Ingrid’s hat
It doesn’t matter if we find the beach or not 
With it raining like that

Checking the important ones
Went out before midnight
I’d like to think we could be either in or out
To hit the waves like that

Oh can we do it?
But can we do it tonight? (bow-wow-wow)
Oh can we do it?
Can we do it tonight? 
Bow-wow-wow

Composer/Guitarist/Producer

Songs: We find them unpainted in our hands, throw them up into the air of our imagination, turning them in the colours we see after we close our eyes until they feel just right, and sometimes we catch them perfectly, without blemishing them...

Most of my tracks are available on Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music, Google Play/YouTube, Amazon, etc, just search for Phil McWalter or follow the link below the track and stream or buy as you wish. 

Wow!!  417K plays and 4,000+ valued followers and friends that provide lots of wonderfully helpful comments that fuel the next track! Really big thanks to the SC community for listening and providing such brilliant feedback and support. It means so much to myself and my collaborators - huge thanks.

I use Native Instrument's Komplete Ultimate 14, Omnisphere 2 and my own organic samples. I love Hollow Sun.
