She`s Not Coming

Written by Daniel Williamson. 

This song is for anyone battling with addiction. 

Later Become Tears

Acoustic folk.
It's a track about the repression of the left hand over the centuries. In the middle ages, it was considered sinister and even evil to use the left hand, hence the name, The Devil's Hand. 

The Devil's Hand

Words & Music by Daren Herring

I think about you in the morning
all day long and even as I sleep
I pray each day my love to keep you 
and for yours my heart and soul to keep

And do you know
that it wont be long 
until you're here, here in my arms?
and do you know?
We've gotta both be strong
it wont be too long

Im underneath my thinking star
it shines so bright, no matter where you are
when the darkness seems too far
look to the sky, my star is where you are

These people here dont understand it
Our love is bright and filled with so much heat
as each new dawn brings a tomorrow
one day less, 'til we can be complete

And do you know
that it wont be long 
until you're here, here in my arms?
and do you know?
We've gonna both be strong
Dont leave it too long

Im underneath my thinking star
it shines so bright, no matter where you are
and if the darkness seems too far
look to the sky, my star is where you are

Solo

And do you know
that it wont be long 
until you're here, here in my arms?
and do you know?
We've gonna both be strong
Dont leave it too long

Im underneath my thinking star
it shines so bright, no matter where you are
and if the darkness seems too far
look to the sky, my star is where you are

Tonight my thinking star
Shine bright for me, 
tonight my thinking star...

Rachel LittleMac presents her audiences with well honed, honest song writing paired with beautiful melodies and harmony-rich vocal lines. She delivers her set confidently and energetically. This anarchic angel of the North has vocals thatare warm and rich with a happy clarity.

Rachel's live performances enable you to share her footsteps down the path of some of her adventures, gaining an insight, empathy, therapy and a glimpse into the future through this medicine; whether you knew you needed it or not. Rachel's songs appear like a herbal remedy and could be prescribed for general well-being.

LittleMac's fan base is expanding all the time as it is so easy to roll along and get carried away with the imagery and playful melody that will wash over and embrace you when traveling through her songs.

She weaves her timeless stories of light and shade, love and politics and  folklore with faeries still visible at the bottom of the garden. She appears really good at observing absurdities with only some alarm on one hand whilst being aware that nature's beauty is now considered a commodity on the other. This girl has both her hands weighed down.

Trust that as she performs Rachel is in her natural element and happy place leaving you free to feel revitalised, full of positive energy and humming the catchy chorus of her most enchanting ballad! 

Simple, traditional acoustic guitar playing accompanies Rachel’s voice beautifully in the live, solo environment but, as you will hear, the recordings presented here reflect a diverse and eclectic range of influences and musical styles. Many of her older tracks are raw, unpolished live versions and demos but thanks to the vision, creativity and technical skill of producers such as Dean Van Jones (Rachel LittleMac 2009-present), Cree Whittingham/Bluejooz (Cyra Elia 1996-2009) and John Fowler (The Halo Project (2012-2014) there are some wonderful studio productions available for you to stream and download on this site creating a vibrant tapestry of musical works.
