What am i to do
What am i to do
Never can tell when you'll come ringing on the bell
Now what am I to do

When the cold wind blows from north to south
Into the river I'll go without a doubt
I'll be catching my supper in the morning
Whomever said just treat her mean
Ain't ever had a lesson from an icy queen
Row Row Row Row
It's a cold September

What am I to think
What am I to think
Never can tell when you'll come ringing on the bell
What am I to think

When the cold wind blows ....

What am I to you
What am I to you
Never can tell when you'll come knocking on the door
What am I to you

When the cold wind blows ...

'The present moment is all you have.' - Eckhart Tolle

The three tangled, gothic folk songs on the 'Devour' EP perfectly showcase With Stones' songwriting: stark but tender, gentle but confrontational, eccentric but consoling.

'A Priest and a Murderer' is a zippy, high-tension dyna-folk instrumental, hiding something sinister under its Pollyannaish surface. 'The Hours' is a waltzing folk-hop entreaty to clean the slate and start again. 'What Will It Take to Let Go?' is a jazz-tinged elegy about the transformative power of nature.

The upbeat feel of With Stones' fingerpicking style sits uneasily alongside his acrid melodies and discordant chord sequences, resulting in something unique and beguiling.

'Life is like music for its own sake. We are living in an eternal now, and when we listen to music we are not listening to the past, we are not listening to the future, we are listening to an expanded present.' - Alan Watts

When you buy 'Devour' you'll get bonus album cover concept artwork, a selection of With Stones in His Pockets' fine-art photographs, and 'The Hours Demo Version'.

"Drivin 'Round North Jersey" by Steve Gabe (Demo)

This session was recorded in the early eighties at the time we were both students at Tyler School of Art. Scott Small on keyboard bass and acoustic solo guitar, Will Zell on keyboard synth and  rhythm guitar.  Written by Will Zell

She Came From Philadelphia

Carpathian folk with cinematic atmosphere, inspired by the legendary “Janosik” soundtrack

JANOSIK

An acoustic guitar groove jam with some bass and synth added after.  It's not pretty but that's ok with me.

Just some twitter musings on the present lawlessness in general.

Lyrics:

A journo was making a rather wooden take
That our very cultural survival was at stake
Reciting cliches, chapter and verse
And the state of his cause got progressively worse
As i passively catalogued his obvious failings

As i witnessed his histrionic railing
I admired his persistence 
Tearing on the weenies
Burying the gawking grifters
And telling those randy stoats to get wrecked
And extolling in all parts the liminal grace of 
The champions of full-gilled bravado
And forthright deportment
And bewailing the existence of
Beanie wearing peacoat-bedecked hipsters
Walking around carrying artisanal baked goods
And oat milk cortados in broad daylight in Portland

But the reality of course was rather more dire
Notably an individual in lingerie
Covered in sores stomping a windshield 
And generally ruining some hapless driver's day
Before attempting to light a man on fire
The nearby police 
Bereft of civic desire
Watched for a moment
Before calmly walking away

Ye bordi  یه بُردی

A therapeutic journey into a mix of jazz, classical, and a blend of types of electronica.  And a wry, gradual observation that promotion tends to only go as far as you push it.  At least I make my fellow musicians laugh a little.

Independent Songwriter, Musician, Lyricist

Sonic alchemist and scribe , Bob namely, is an instrument of charge and light privileged to be in a body, lived, able and ever so glad to share the musical vibrations.

An Inspirational composer author producer and award winning guitar hero from Ireland, Bobby is a lyrical light power house synthesized through acoustic organic beats and loops allow his rich message of spatial light renewal and transformation be delivered clear on the light wave .

Back in the heyday Bobby toured and released music extensively with bands Hooky , Open Kitchen , Kila ,  and has spent a large portion of his life facilitating music workshops , co writing recording and releasing music with and through young and aspiring performers under the banner
 R o o t s ​ .

His focus throughout being is to motivate and inspire an understanding of the human brecoming an awakened light being , a journey Bobby has consciously taken after an intense initiation led him into this realm , here he now dedicates and advances his lifes work as a governed being around this . 

A quiet and settled man he crafts from his home studio The Chapel, recording and releasing music online consistently along with books on Spatial Law and The Art of Being Lived , under the influence and name Orakhal.

With Stones in His Pockets is a singer-songwriter from South London. He writes formally experimental gothic music that dwells at the murky boundary between folk and post-rock; pessimistic but weirdly uplifting songs about broken-hearted people on the fringes of society.

Through his solo performance, With Stones channels the impact of a full rock band. In each sparse, tangled song is an orchestral epic trying to get out. On stage, he strains every sinew to bring the crowd into his dynamic, idiosyncratic musical world, where psych rock, folk, classical and jazz jostle for space, and catharsis is thin on the ground.

With Stones in His Pockets’ latest album ‘Missives’ was released in 2023.
