New Music!!!

 It's been flipping ages but finally some new songs recorded and on SoundCloud.

First up - There You Go which is also my entry into this year's Talent Is Timeless competition.

This is very like much of my material, essentially written as a solo acoustic guitar singer songwriter number, though never performed live at an open mic or whatever you can tell it has that feel.  Features my P90 equiped gold top single cut for the first time ever.


Next is Rose Tinted Rear View Mirror.

Written on my octave mandolin (see my previous track Minstrel Man) with some additional guitar from my Great Guitar Build Off 2021 guitar which marks its recording debut.


Onto the more rock numbers now.  Empathy which was written and recorded on my Mahogany Telecaster partscaster build, again a recording debut.  

This most difficult part of this one was getting the drum track sorted.  I had worked it out and tried to program it in only for the Boss BR-600 I use to tell me I'd exceeded the number of steps.  Not put off I did a clever trick to get more than 50 steps on the final piece.  Happy to explain to anyone interested.


Lastly a tune that's been about for years and the first line also but finally I've nailed it into an actual song.  The missing piece was the solo which I worked out on a jam session with a looper pedal - then I had the complete picture in my head and it came together.  The most rock of this set.  All guitar is courtesy of my GGBO 2021 guitar again.


Hope you enjoy - please comment on Soundcloud or here or ask any questions about the writing / recording process.
