This is a reflection on my last six weeks swimming in the darkness.

I grew up listening to my Mum singing everything from The Beatles to Gilbert & Sullivan. My early teens were spent browsing vinyl. I've always been obsessed with music, but rarely mainstream. Listening usually happened alone because no one else seemed to like the same music. In my late teens I veered off the rails after losing Dad, but Mum was still singing! I remained involved in music, going to gigs playing guitar & listening. Work, mortgage & family took over. Then a career change in 1997 paired me with a colleague & I got back into performing covers.
In 2015 I had a mental health breakdown and as part of my healing process I began writing my own songs. 
Now at 63 & retired, I have time to write, listen & play live again. I enjoy exploring lyrics & their effect on mood. You can find me at local open mics & small local festivals. Just me & my guitar, but now experimenting with DAW's to create new sounds. Hoping to get a studio session soon & just looking for a break. Thanks for reading
