My latest cover of Sufjan Stevens' haunting ballad about the eponymous serial killer.  The lyrics are fantastic and Sufjan's voice is on another level, so I can only try and capture a part of the original's ethereal grace here.  Enjoy.

Thought I'd do a quick cover of Razorlight's 'Wire to Wire' this afternoon.  If anyone has any cover suggestions I'd gladly hear them.

Wire To Wire - Razorlight (Cover by Quantocks)

I had a lot of fun making this cover.  Going for the Massive Attack vibe.

Gabriel - Joe Goddard (Cover by Quantocks)

I was inspired to do this one evening.  It's still one of my favourite songs of recent years, so I hope you enjoy my laid-back tribute.

Midnight City - M83 (Cover by Quantocks)

This is the theme song for my story CRAVE :) 

Wildest Dreams (Madilyn Bailey)

-------------------

It’s like I’m living in a wasteland
of words I’m trying to say 
but they don’t come out right
Like I could be your friend
if you had anything to offer me tonight

I want a heart unbreakable
so I can feel it all

It’s like I’m living in a wasteland
of words I’m trying to say 
but they don’t come out right
Like I could be your friend
if you had anything to offer me tonight
But I am just a fool
Cause I could be in love if I really tried
Holding onto something I can’t see
so you can comfort me tonight

I can feel disaster 
falling on me after 
the sun comes up
you say goodnight
But I keep crawling over you for now
cause everything I feel is a waste of time
Holding onto something I can’t see
won’t comfort me tonight

I want a heart unbreakable
So I can feel it all.
It’s like I’m living in a wasteland
of words I’m trying to say 
but they don’t come out right
Like I could be your friend
if you had anything to offer me tonight
But I am just a fool
Cause I could be in love if I really tried
Holding onto something I can’t see
so you can comfort me tonight

I want a heart unbreakable
I want a heart unbreakable
I want a heart unbreakable
So I can feel it all.

It’s like I’m living in a wasteland
of words I’m trying to say 
but they don’t come out right
Like I could be your friend
if you had anything to offer me tonight
But I am just a fool
Cause I could be in love if I really tried
Holding onto something I can’t see
so you can comfort me tonight

Did my invitations disappear?
Why'd I put my heart on every cursive letter?
Tell me why the hell no one is here
Tell me what to do to make it all feel better
 
Maybe it’s a cruel joke on me
Whatever whatever
Just means there's way more cake for me
Forever forever
 
It's my party and I cry if I want to cry if I want 
To cry cry cry
I'll cry until the candles burn down this place
I'll cry until my pity party's in flames
It's my party and I cry if I want to 
cry if I want to (cry cry cry)
I'll cry until the candles burn down this place
I'll cry until my pity party's in flames
 
Maybe if I knew all of them well
I wouldn't have been trapped inside this hell that holds me
Maybe if I casted out a spell or told them decorations were in pastel ribbons
 
Maybe it's a cruel joke on me
Whatever whatever
Just means there's way more cake for me 
Forever forever 
 
It's my party and I cry if I want to cry if I want 
To cry cry cry
I'll cry until the candles burn down this place
I'll cry until my pity party's in flames
It's my party and I cry if I want to 
cry if I want to (cry cry cry)
I'll cry until the candles burn down this place
I'll cry until my pity party's in flames
 
I'm laughing I'm crying it feels like I'm dying
I'm laughing I'm crying it feels like I'm dying
I’m laughing I'm crying it feels like I'm dying I'm dying I'm dying

re: Stacks - Bon Iver (Cover by Natalie Holmes and Quantocks)

Thought I'd have a creative day and put my own spin on this beautiful song :)

The District Sleeps Alone Tonight (The Postal Service cover)

A cover of @flightfacilities.
@natalieholmesmusic on the vocals. 



Clair De Lune (feat. Natalie Holmes)

I sang in a choir when I was younger and loved it. It's been a loooong time, but I enjoyed giving this a shot. Shot myself in the foot a bit making it so slow *CAN'T BREATHE*.

But anyway, I hope you like it :) x

P.s. I can't roll my R's so apologies for poor pronunciation!

Ave Maria - Natalie Holmes

Christmas requires cheese, right? I'm a sucker for a music box <3

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas (Cover)

I'm a huge HAIM fan and it when I was listening to this song in the car last week that I realised how relevant the lyrics were to me right now, and just had to cover it. 

This audio is taken from my live YouTube session: https://youtu.be/oikouo4lzQo

Days Are Gone (HAIM Cover)

I disappear to sea a lot.
