I released a new song in collaboration with singer/songwriter Maisy Taylor, it’s called ‘Home’ and you can listen to it HERE, or on your fav music spots…
We wrote the song about a year ago on my kitchen table. We were drinking tea and chit-chatting about nothing in particular and I suggested we should try write a song, it was quite random really but I thought, heck, why not! So we got a piece of chart paper, a pen and a guitar, and we got writing.
I set my alarm for five to eight, so I can stay in bed a little longer
I tried to ignore what’s at my front, my eyes begin to wonder
It only took us about an hour if I can remember correctly, and that was it.
out to the mountains, out to the sea
if I could remember how it felt to be
out in the mountains, out in the sea
in the middle of somewhere, just one guarantee
We played (& loved) the song at any live show we did together and then figured we should record a live(ish) version so we can release it together. We recorded the song with Brisbane Producer/Engineer Jon Marsden and kept it for a little while before we kicked ourselves in the bums and set a release date.
A friend of Maisy’s did the artwork, Monte. Check out his work HERE. And we sent a few emails to try get some local write-ups (insert mostly cricket sounds) but we got some lovely comments about the song (see below). Well worth it I think!
‘one of the nicest songs I’ve heard in a long time’
‘greatest breath of fresh air, I know i’ll be listening all day’
‘I’ve played it four times already, I love, love, love it’ (thanks mum)
