Who Are You (feat EBETHB)

I wrote the lyric for this song after a family blackberrying expedition a few years ago. My old friend Gareth and I put some chords to it and recorded it. Lizzy Taypen said that she liked it a lot, so I took the opportunity to rope her in to sing with us. I mixed her vocal in and produced another version. https://soundcloud.com/garddwrporffor/blackberrying-harmonies-with-lizzie-mix-2
I listened to it again and thought that Lizzies vocal was very special and that I had missed the best version. So I mixed a version with only Lizzie singing and a more gentle support track. I thought that it was beautiful, it is the track  here.

Blackberrying

When the sun light falls in a steeply slanted angle
And the colours of the world fade to muted reds and golds
The living soil still holds it’s warmth and waning sweetness
As another summer gently slips from our aging fingers hold
We can still find simple joy in the things we did as children
Finding fruit among the bushes along the margins of our roads
with our adult children now
as we enjoy this timeless pleasure
Of finding fruits just hanging ripe and ready in the hedgerow
And taking them back home with us like edible treasure hoards

Folk don’t seem to bother now, to take the time to pick them
Still they grow and glow like jewels amongst natures topiary
A present from an old imagined ancient world of wonder
As sweet fruit drops into our hands from the realm of the fairyies
We stretch to reach the fullest ones, beyond reach in the branches
the nettles tingle our arms and legs if we fail to be wary
Then we carry home our bounty, taking great care not to spill them
and turn them into memories that we had very nearly lost
a refreshment for our hearts from our purple blackberries

Blackberrying feat Lizzie Taypen

a quick one in the morning............cheers for having a listen

Unexpected Visit - with Jussi Welin & Boon Suzuki Hidefumi

I have posted this song some years ago, but I decided to do some new recordings on bass, synths and piano. 
Some latin vibes inspired by Carlos Santana.
Lets go:)

Pacific Crossing.  Oddvar Solheim guitar (instrumental version)

One minute things are going fine
But life can turn on a dime
Every day you roll the dice
And sometimes you find yourself on thin ice

You go for a routine medical check
And they find something you didn’t expect
You’ve been eating healthy food you take a daily jog
Now you’re wondering if you’ll outlive your dog

You’ve been working so hard for all these years
 but what do you have to show for it
All these things you bought but what do you have to show for it

Some people spend their lives accumulating wealth
But what’s the point of money if you don’t have your health

It’s nice to set some long term goals and think about your future days
But sometimes you need to take a step back and make sure you’re on the right highway

You’re hanging by a thread that you used to think was a thick rope
Your road was very flat but now you’re climbing a steep slope

You get up in the morning and you go to work 
You get up in the morning an you go to work
You get up in the morning and you go to work
Five days a week

You’ve been working so hard for all these years
but what do you have to show for it
All these things you bought but what do you have to show for it


You wake up every morning  go  about your day
Sometimes you wonder if it’s goanna be okay
You try to take it one day at a time
Some days are bad others are fine

Incidental finding, life threw you a curve
You're driving down the highway and you're trying not to swerve.
Incidental finding, life threw  you a curve
You're driving down the highway and you're trying not to swerve.

Incidental Finding

Where Has The Love Gone ?  (short version)

another old demo from what was going to be a good idea. Let us know what you think... I'm trying to get Jana back in the studio

In the darkness
With the stars so bold
He keeps searching for the warmth he’s owed
He walks the streets
With his head hung low
He has a struggle with nothing to show
Got his dreams strapped on his back
A Heavy Load…..
Been walking too long
On this Broken Road
In every beat, a somber note
In every line, a whispered hope
He’s reaching out for something real
For someone who can help him heal
Oh, Come Heal My Heart
Because it’s been torn apart
Come On now
And Heal My Heart
Wanderin’ through the storm he fights
Just longing for a Ray of Light
He hides the scars inside his soul
Spent too much of his life….
Out in the cold
Come Warm My Heart

You’ve got a lot of balls up in the air
Never one to go the safest route
You took a detour on a dare
Now I’m looking forward to checking it out
There’s no  limitation on your imagination
You shoot unscripted on location
In the dead of night
You set your feet and see it through
It’s all I’ve ever seen you do
In the easy light 

You took up painting just a year ago
Now you’re selling out the gallery
You’ve got a longer list of projects waiting
Than any fortune teller could ever see
You’re making headlines underneath the fold
With your hands of stone and your heart of gold
And your vision like a satellite
When inhibitions ever lead to doubt
You just open em up and air them out
In the easy light

But it’s only human to hesitate
Some plans might pass their sell by date
Throw em on the pile
When your better angels take a turn
It’s alright sometimes to crash and burn
Disappear for a while

Your nightstand’s a collection of 
Fiction, fact and alchemy
It’s everybody’s guess why
But you seem to still put up with me
You’re a builder in the best way
Of life and art and dreams 
And I think I just might
Not let the ink dry before I pull the lever
That lets me hold you close forever
In the easy light
On a canvas under a sky of blue
All I want is to be there with you
In the easy light
