Play The Game 03:34
lyrics
buy track
Forever asking questions of how we should live Stuck in a world that finds it hard to forgive Blank out the answers and follow you’re heart Take 1 step take 2 steps, take 3 steps and leave the game? Conveyor belts are best left in factories Leave it behind, book a ride on the breeze Look back to your 20’s when you didn’t give a fuck (you believed in luck) Take one step, take 2 steps, take 3 steps and leave the game. Cradle your life cause you only get one stab at it Loosen your tie, cause your sure to benefit Breaking the orders, changing the rules ake one step, take 2 steps, take 3 steps and leave the game. Don't Get ahead of yourself You’ll find nobody else

Euphoria 03:27
lyrics
buy track
I wanna coin the phrase I’m on a different plain Observe from a different angle, I’m floating away Dig deep into the fear Swallowed by sinking sand Take your best forgotten High above the clouds Euphoria Euphoria, Euphoria Eu-ooo -phoiria Scare away the problem, By turning out the lights Wake up in the morning Everythings alright Step away from the problem Go Jump over the moon Like you’re in slow motion And not a moment too soon. There’s a place called silence, somewhere I’ve never been They say if you’re still searching you’ll find deep within

Every Christmas 03:18
lyrics
buy track
In every Christmas Eve, there are dreams of the gifts that we might receive, Will our wishes come true if we believe In every Christmas light, there’s a face that you have brought to life, Someone you’ll never say goodbye (it’s too hard to say goodbye In every Christmas song, there’s a choir of children singing along, Voices heard above and beyond our lifetime In every Christmas tree, there lives a million memories Whispers of my family around me. Unwrapping presents, singing songs, sharing laughter all day long. Ohhhhhh at Christmas Time

about

In 2005 I wrote and recorded a CD every month for a year. A physical CD was sent to whoever wanted it. 10 years later I have finished recording a 12 track LP with folk collective Few Who Do. I'm planning on doing a monthly release of each track from the LP in addition to challenging myself to write at least 2 new acoustic tracks written each month.

Here are 2 new tracks I wrote in November and track 11 from the LP - Play The Game

1. Play The Game - I wrote this song as a lullaby to a young baby... I'd sing my kids to sleep playing it, but it never worked ...
2. Euphoria - Find silence to help solve the problem
3. Every Christmas - A song about the memories which make Christmas extra special
