about

When I first visited New England I fell in love with the area, the rural parts of the north east US is just so beautiful and peaceful.

I could definitely live there and spend my days making wonky furniture, hitting pipes and wailing under the stars...

lyrics

The ghosts and spirits of Fryeburg Maine
call to me in a moment of silence
I will count up and keep all of my coins
with them build a shelter and some self reliance
I want to find an old fishing boat painted shipyard grey
and spend my days making her seaworthy
New England with your New England trees
look what you've done to me

I want to learn It's not just the song it's where you sing it
I long to leave some dust and feathers on the mic
an old barn, high ceilings, a cathedral of bric a brac with history
wood beams, paint cans, old bricks and a rusted bike

In the shadow of the brave white mountains
and their smart red and orange cousins
I want to go way out there and never come back
like vinyl, telegrams and carrier pigeons
want to wash up on the shore of some lake's island
stick a flag in the sand and claim it as my own
New England with your New England eyes
I hope you'll welcome me home

I want to learn it's not just the song it's where you play it
I long to leave these notes scattered along the river bank
grab some branches and kick the earth under a tea stained sky
and in my sweethearts arms share some evening whispered thanks

Songwriting and banging your instruments together

The main thing I love to do is write songs. I pick up various instruments from ukulele to piano, accordion to percussion and electric guitar to harmonica and bang them about to try and get close to the noises I hear in my head but the writing comes first. ... more
