Reminds me a bit of another song from you, with extra-spice… Nevertheless, having been absent from the cloud for so long, I can't help falling to the incredible charm of your works... It just goes like this, I listen, am charmed, feel lucky, and you – like Sandman's orchestra – never, never, never disappoint. 

mulchy majickal, cinder-toffee'dly delectible, woodsmokily wonderful... :)

Wes, its been a while since i heard one of yours: but its been worth the wait.
Like the whole medieval feel to this song: A dulcimer, eh? Havent heard THAT used since.... oh probably Ian Anderson back in the late 70's LOL. 
Also like the way you shift from what i think of as 12/8 to 8/8 beat: the former being made up of a 3+3+3+3  and the latter being a 3+3+2 which ALMOST disguises itself as a continuation of the 3 beat theme until the 2 beats change the meaning completely. Nice work.
Enjoyed the listen.


@marycigarettes: Nice riff and close harmony, Like your songs.... hope you like mine greetz mr. Americana

So happy I found your soundcloud... This is beautiful! I love the main riff, so catchy and eerie. Your voice goes with it well, has a ghost like quality. Great job! :)

Beautifully crafted with such interesting rhythms. All the different elements really come together in a most beautiful and successful way. A lovely song, thanks a lot for your offering.

Get Out Get Out Get Out (Jason Molina Cover)

Featuring Callum Duggan on double bass and Georgia Ruth on vocals, this is a song best described as a portrayal of loneliness. It was inspired by many of my favourite writers and is an unofficial tribute to the genius of Richard Brautigan.

The Fisherman

A song about the refugee crisis, the tragic situation in the Mediterranean sea and the shamefully inadequate response of our political leaders. Proceeds to Oasis Cardiff, which provides services for refugees and asylum seekers in the city. Taken from the album Ruins/Adfeilion, which is out now.

Bound For Lampedusa

A guitar instrumental that also goes under the name 'Cytgan Pen Llyn'. Written at Aberdarron in the month of may

It's an old house we live in

A new ditty in progress, hoping to shine it up and release on a wintery album. We'll see if it gets done before the Spring.

Where The Cold Is Setting In (rough single-take demo)

Last song of 2016- I think spring will come early next year. Or late.

Light On The Desk - rough demo (again)

A wistful requiem for the space space is painted upon

On a Black Surface

Excerpt of the accompanying music track to the Cubby's Tarn series of photographic work by Joseph Wright

Cubby's Tarn

Cubbys Tarn (Excerpt) by Richard Skelton

This is one of those eerie autumnal numbers that seem to float around my head at this time of year. I imagine an Atkinson Grimshaw painting  when listening to parts of this. I suppose its another song about fighting those little demons that trouble us.

"Vackraste"
musik&text: Bergman

jag hörde john holm sjunga sommaräng
började längta hem till min egen säng
tog bron över sundet en kall vinterdag
fångade nåt i flykten och livet var bra

det är fint här på sommaren snälla häng kvar 
du vet väl att du är det vackraste jag har?

skogar, slätter, älvar, berg och hav
befria mej en stund från alla mina krav
alla åt envar verkar vara tidens melodi
alla är inte starka nog
välkommen - sorti

det är fint här på sommaren snälla bli kvar 
du vet väl att du är det vackraste jag har?

skärmar framför våra ögon från morgon till kväll
en halv meter till vår händelse-horizont
jag längtar då jag längtar så

följer solens gång från öst till väst
ser fåglar flyga över mej till ny address
går bland ljung och bland stenar och i sand
då isen smälter här på veka strand

det är fint här på sommaren snälla bli kvar 
du vet väl att du är det vackraste jag har?

allt är pixilerat allting är information
allt vi tänker och gör är en holografisk projektion
jag längtar då jag längtar så

jag vill dela allt med dej
det jag inte har
det du ger mej räcker och blir kvar

det är fint här på sommaren snälla bli kvar 
du vet väl att du är det vackraste jag har?


Vackraste ft qvarsebo

Wes Martin, I write songs and paint. Not at the same time.
I wrote a song per week in '11 as Ukuleleboy (despite rarely using one, I know!!). I still write and record songs, annd post them on here. Hope you enjoy listening.
