Beautiful song! Absolutely love your work!

Such crisp sounding guitar, sounds great with that straightforward percussion

brilliant song man! really uplifting with your  lyrics and a great production. I am no journalist but top 5 I've heard here so far

good job the song was very easy to listen to

the lyrics are poignant. the dueling guitars are magnificent

A song about the joy of live music (plus a music triva quiz- how many references can you get?!)

EDIT 01/05/21: complete rework of this track for a more raw upbeat, pop-ier feel to match the theme of live music

LYRICS:

I’ve paraded with the wolves amid the stink of sweat and booze
Joined the kids with the fringes sharp as blades
In rebellions in burnt arcades
I missed out on paradise but the drummer’s karma rocked me twice
I’ve sampled new pornography and walked with spiders nationally
Jacked up my red blood cells
Kicking televisions in Yankee hotels

There’s nowhere else I’d want to go
This is the place, this is the moment now
This is the song, this is the show

We’ve sung along to the greatest song and we’ve seen the devil cry
Saw a beautiful world inside a cave, exploded in the sky
The world has turned while empires fake and in our dreams the levee breaks
I was adored and resurrected by common people that we selected
The pink moon showed us what to feel
And we promised the android the plastic tree was real

This is the Moment Now

ROOFS (POST PUNK X GOTH ROCK X DARKWAVE TYPE BEAT INSTRUMENTAL)

A rock song about being not being ashamed of who you are

LYRICS:

Took out a loan for the aftermath and you squandered it all and now you’re down on your luck
We came along and we told you that you had wandered off course into the path of a truck
The shorter nights are upon us now and you’re staying up late so you can sing to the sun
The water might fall upon the town and it’ll wash off the cobwebs and the spiders will run

Pack your bags and unlock the door, avoid disturbing the neighbours as you leave the flat
You always knew that you were meant for more, so you kept telling yourself while they were telling you that you were always meant for the simple work
Waiting on folks who’d had an easier ride
You gave the finger and a narky smirk to the bully in the suit you just couldn’t abide

You learn the hard way
And your fortunes are turning someday soon

When I was young, it was a disgrace if you had enough books to fill up a bookcase
I grew up ashamed of not being the same as the boys who believed that life peaks at age sixteen

Blank horizons, incurious minds seemed cool at the time
A trap that leaves you behind

Blank Horizons

A song about going to a summer music festival and getting merry

LYRICS:

The summer breeze flows through your hair
The sound of voices fills the air
The music calls you to the field
The only place you know is real

The sun is sinking in the sky
We’re all-day drinking, getting high
The line-up’s bringing in the crown
The night is waking up so loud

And we’re all in for the occasion of the year
And we’re calling for the erasure of the fear
We’re falling over and we tell them we’re still here
And we’re crawling back to the canvas soaked in beer

Crawling Back to the Canvas

Around My Head

A guitar instrumental from the West Coast of Scotland

This is a song about parents, teachers, work mangers and leaders all messing with your head and making you feel inferior when they have got no more of a clue than you'll ever have; so feck it and go with your gut, so long as it isn't hurting anyone :) That's what I say anyway. I've had a lot of practice and experience; but still, what the hell do I know eh? :)
