STILL BIPOLAR

Just wipe your tears, I will stay right here,
I wont go anywhere, unless you stay right there,
You know Ill never let go of your hand and you know it,
Because Ill stay in your head so you will never forget of me,
Wipe your tears so when I leave this earth,
Because there nothing for me waiting over for me,
Because I’ll stay in your head and you know I will never leave,
Because I want you to remember me as your first love ever,

I should really stay away,
I dont even remember how to spell your name,
Because I look at the rain and every single fucking drop just holds our memories,

Just wipe your tears, I will stay right here,
I wont go anywhere, unless you stay right there,
You know Ill never let go of your hand and you know it,
Because Ill stay in your head so you will never forget of me,
Wipe your tears so when I leave this earth,
Because there nothing for me waiting over for me,
Because I’ll stay in your head and you know I will never leave,
Because I want you to remember me as your first love ever,

Will I ever see your face?
Probably never im such a disgrace,
I will always love you for all of the memories we had

Heres that love song i promised you i was scared to upload it until I realized you wont hear it

Heartbreak

party all alone
she wishes you were someone
your reflection doesn’t match
you just wish that you were chosen

don’t lie to me
don’t lie to me
just let me be
just let me be
I’m tryna see
I’m tryna see
what we could be
what we could be

party all alone
she wishes you were someone
your reflection doesn’t match
you just wish that you were chosen

chosen

get it thru ur head (feat. Kirbs)

This has guitars and guitars and guitars.  Cheeky little number, thought about time revised it for 2019 and bought it up to date.  Original composition (in as far as blues in C is original) from Back to Basics days, great fun to play live with Jeffro and Vince backing me up , this version has even more notes and feeling , that's what time does to you ! #UplandsTavern, several memories right there. 
Even my blues are happy. Don't wash the blues with lighter colours folks.

This isn't the cherrydot, this is the loud one being all shouty and central to the party, then brooding in the corner looking glamorous in its cherry sunburst way! Ok, big breath, so if you mould 'Enter 123', 'Gotta Get Up', 'Carpe Diem' and 'Thrash Dystopian Annihilation' you'll get somewhere near. Throw in 'In The Beginning', 'Humane', 'Spice of Life' and 'Cheshire Cat' too why not. To be succinct, this is loud, brazen, slick, chunky, and fun ROCK!

Lips On Mine.WAV

Written on the Les Paul, recorded on the Cherrydot. A delicate number in complete contrast to 'Lips On Mine' and the first of Four currently on the go. The melody caught my eye so I ran with it, this is reflected when played acoustically. Lyrics seemed to flow naturally, so from idea to completion in days. The stereo panned rhythm guitar is wrapped in the Tokyo Dreamland chorus effect. Well it's still Summer!

My Love For You.WAV

The riff's been around over a week. Had some recording nightmares with fragmentation, don't ask! However melody and lyric line were memorable so this is reborn! Lyrics were written whilst watching stage 2 of Le Tour!! Vive Le Tour!! Give it your best shot.

September has started with a bang 3 songs in a week and the Fifth album for 2020 nearly completed. 

I've been told 'September Song' is unmistakably my style. I'll take that.

These three sections/riffs have been bouncing round for 4 days now so I've finally rounded them up into Cat & Mouse. I think it's the lovechild of 'Would You Be Cool' and 'Enter Your World' !

Cat & Mouse.WAV

Gibson Cherry Dot obsession continues. Inspired by exciting grooves and a 60’s vibe which I wear on my sleeve. There’s an eclectic mix of guitar fuelled rhythms all written, produced and performed by myself which have now culminated in 226 tracks in 5 years. Having added vocals to the mix this has brought a further depth and individuality to the songs. 2020 saw the creativity in writing and self releasing 2 EP's and 9 albums 'The Black Tulip' , 'Prismatic' , 'Who Would You Be?' , 'The Red Carpet', 'Cat & Mouse', ‘How This Plays Out', 'Positive Signs', 'All The Colours' and  '9' from April 2022, it's frenetic.
These are available on the usual outlets Spotify/iTunes/Deezer/Pandora/Napster, Bandcamp etc.

Its eclectic, quirky I confess, British? Experimental in places but above all stuffed full with Gibson guitars, energy and a passion for music and life in the highs and lows that days of late bring.  Hope you appreciate the artwork too all photographed or produced by me to keep it authentic and original.

The tenth album 'Keep On' saw the development of style and flow which  includes my personal favourites 'The Things That You Love', 'Man on The Run' and the title track, 'Keep On'. These all adapted a different approach and development that simply wouldn't have occurred at the start of the journey,  

The music's progressing and the album 'The Perfect Storm' set the benchmark in online attention with the title track single. I think the style and sincerity of performance mirrored the fact that all of my tracks are written for a reason and sparked by quite intense life changing events behind the scenes, you couldn't write it or maybe I could ! 
Personal choices at the moment are the opener Can't Erase The Memory, I Can and of course the single The Perfect Storm. 

Twelfth album ‘Heart Of Blue’, is completed and recently released  September 6th 2024. It's been a while (for me) in the making and each track just builds on the last. The themes of resilience, belief and positivity remain and the music continues to be guitar driven and punchy with hooks and catchy melodies.  

Album 13 is entitled 'Every Time' and is released to all platforms on June 12th. To come so quickly after 'Heart Of Blue' says a lot about the inspiration and creative drive. Themes of resilience, perseverance, hope and love, dominate in what I believe is my most cognitive and mature album yet, see what you think.
 
I'm thankful the creativity continues. The fact the writing and playing still excites and intrigues is a bonus! Where there's a story to tell and a melody to be heard the last song is always my drug for the next, 13 albums in it's not abating anytime soon.
