Simple music, but very good solid feel. I like this dirty grunge guitar sound and bass with your sweet voice on it.

Just discovered your music and I’m glad i did. Loving the gritty guitar sound and stoner rock vibes. Lovely vocals too! I’m excited to hear more of your work! 

Love this, love your style and your voice.

Nice and menacing with the super chilling voice to match.

Fast Train

The morning sun has lost its warmth
There’s a coolness in the air
Shadows lengthen in the street
On branches that are bare

A frost lies gentle on the grass
The smell of burning leaves
Each night hangs heavier in our bones
As we rise
To brush our teeth

The train pulls in at half past eight
We file into the aisles
Hanging from the rails and straps
We’re rocked from side to side

The backs of houses pass us by
A hundred stories to unfold
As the wheels thunder on the tracks
And we try to keep control 

Now smile
Because the world it needs to laugh
Stay  awhile
Your stations just gone past
This train’s too fast

A woman’s crying next to me
Tears drop into her coffee cup
Strangers crowd and try to help
And all our eyes are welling up

Her shoulders shake with every sob
We all stand and watch in awe
As things fall apart
In carriage number four

Now smile
Because the world it needs to laugh
Stay  awhile
Your stations just gone past
This train’s too fast

Fast Train - featuring SuZanne Ledwith

This movement is in rondo form (ABACA, in which C recalls the melody from the second movement) The ending brings back various thematic elements from the first two movements, particularly the motive D-Eb.



Sonata for Viola and Piano, III. Rondo

We brought a bunch of instruments with us to Okinawa, but then were busy camping and swimming and enjoying the sunshine and barely did anything musical at all!! Then the last night we decided we better do SOMETHING with the instruments and stuff we brought, so we threw this together. Just a little improvisation about remembering to just be.

Atman (Just Be) Okinawa Demo

New song from David Cooper and Glen Granthem.

Glen sent me a new poem he had written and asked me to add music to it.

I added instrumentation and melody/vocals and produced the song.

Hope you like what you're hearing and many thanks for listening.

Watch the video Glen created for this song:

Verse 1

This raging river flows
Like a dream that no one knows
I look down the path I chose
And watch where the story goes

Verse 2

I reap the seeds I've sewn
The sun flower climbs and grows
Consumes the highs and lows
Then it leaves a single rose

Chorus 1

The canyons grand in my eyes
Over head the eagle flies
A wilderness that reaches far and wide
Embraced I see our last goodbye

Verse 3

I recall the white beach sand
Now I live on barren land
So afraid the past will stand
A single rose in one hand

Verse 4

Down below the people chase 
All the things they can't erase
It leaves such a bitter taste
What we had I cannot face

Chorus 2

Canyons grand in my eyes
Over head the eagle flies
Forests reach out for the sky
The single rose begins to die

Outro

The Canyons grand in my eyes
The eagles born to Fly
The Canyons grand in my eyes 
Over head the eagle flies

Canyons Grand In My Eyes (Cooper/Granthem Collaboration)

I wrote and recorded this a month ago, just a throwaway, superfuzzy, trashy indie pop song about foot fetishists
And so much has happened since...
But we can still dance, yeah? xx

Berlin Heel

A song I wrote and recorded

Lyrics:

This life is a one-way street and I wish that I 
Could go back in time and make some changes
Always chasing better days but they’re far behind.
Now I’m looking for a peace that lasts forever.

How do we get on the road to nowhere
Where do we sleep tonight
Where do find dreams that last forever
How do we get a second chance in life

Took a shot on the open road and cut  my ties
Too late to heed the words they were saying
Spent my life taking bad advice and now its time
To hit the road and find what I’ve been missing

Living on the road I don’t have a home
Just a trailer full of my belongings
This is all I got
This is my last shot
I have dream but I don’t know where im going.

The Road to Nowhere

Great Conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn today. I dedicate this song to it.

Tomorrow
December 27, 2020  All Rights Reserved

Shadows stretch upon the avenue in time
And echo chambers pass the time away...in rhyme 
With repetition by design...
Right before our eyes
One more time

When the mourning comes before the dawn
Underneath electric skies 
There’s a place where we can run and hide
A place for you and I...

Tomorrow holds the second hands...of time 
The past will leave itself behind...this time
The wheels of change will turn from yesterday 
Roll on down the line 
One more time...

The forest lies somewhere beyond the trees 
If we could get there that’d be fine...
Reason’s just another casualty
of a truth so undefined...

Shadows stretch upon the avenue in time
And echo chambers pass the time away...in rhyme 
With repetition by design...
Right before our eyes
One more time

Tomorrow

This song is kind of a sequel to https://soundcloud.com/adam-woodard/rock-n-roll-band-shelby-bryantshel-silverstein by Shel Silverstein by way of @shelbybryant

Yes, we love your band 
Our band
We catch every show
That we can 
To see your band 

We love the old stuff 
And the new stuff and
Everything in between 
I can’t tell you what you mean to us
Yes, we
Love your band

I met the drummer in Milwaukee
He held a broken walkie-talkie
I was surprised ‘cause I always thought he
Was a bit taller than me
But now I see

Yes, we love your band
Our band
We got some pawn shop amps
And late night plans
For our band

We don’t wanna be too famous
We just wanna be just like you
We’ll cut an album in the south of France in a castle
Pastel lovers on the cover
We’ll only need each other
And our love for you

But our singer is afraid of flying
I’m not the only one that thinks he’s lying
Don’t you think he’s just afraid of trying 
I am hoping you might help us
Help us feel less hopeless
P.S. we’re your biggest fans

Love, our band 
(Milwaukee walkie-talkie squawky walkie talkie)
Love, our band
(Milwaukee walkie-talkie squawky walkie talkie)
Love, our band
(Milwaukee walkie-talkie squawky walkie talkie)

Love, Our Band

Edie Review " Thankfully Steph is still ploughing her particular esoteric furrow and has just released her new single Edie which is as good as anything she's released to date. It sounds like a darkly psychedelic theme from a long forgotten  left field spaghetti western and it's absorbing and utterly enchanting. If the Velvet Underground had been commissioned to do the title track for the Good, The Bad and the Ugly, this is how it would sound." The Devil Has The Best Tuna 13th May 2022

Gigradar "British singer-songwriter Steph Sweet freely admits she’s a “refined taste” but it’s difficult to not be intrigued by her feisty, often contentious approach to pyschy acoustic indie-rock meets punk brand of music."

Popocculture
"Steph Sweet has brought an interesting and new sound to this area.
With powerful vocals, and swirlly and crunchy guitar riffs that wouldn’t sound out of place in a late 90’s britpop, yet grounded somewhere more in the early 80’s. “All The Things” is dark, broody, a little strange, but also interestingly an ear worm that will grab you and not let go." 

" If the Bronte sisters formed a freak folk band then it'd probably sound something like this." 
Paul Kerr - The Devil Has The Best Tuna

" Placed somewhere between Devandra Banhart and Joanna Newsome, the singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist  -  vocals, guitars, drums, keyboards  -   combines a talent for bewitching songwriting, with a dreamy, lo-fi alt-gaze delivery."
