What's New
Melancholy Operator is out today! Hope you get something out of it if you listen. Link is at the bottom of the post, but sure you all know where to go in this day and age.
Written and recorded by myself last February, painstakingly mixed in the last two months also by myself, and then mastered by the wonderful Marsden Mastering.

It was a big year for the kid. 2 EP’s released, first time in a pro recording studio, returned to the stage for the first time since before the pandemic, first time playing solo (ever), got to play in my favourite bar and even in a church (variety is the spice of life) had my name in a ferryclever card (big brag) and many other delightful surprises along the way.
Grateful to everyone who supports me and/or enjoys my music.
Here’s to taking more chances in 2023! 
Thanks so much to Search Party and Bennigans for having myself and Dose play last night! Songs were sung, strings were broke, craic was had. And on a school night!!! 😧
GIG – BENNIGANS 15th NOV
Well folks, I’m lucky to be supporting Search Party as they kick off their Ireland & UK tour in Derry! Catch me in Bennigans on 15th November alongside Clodagh May, I reckon it may be a bit class?

My Head Spun Out 
My new EP has been out for over a week. I don’t usually use the term, but the reaction to it has been quite heartwarming to be honest. Every play or mention gives me a little buzz and I love hearing someone’s enjoyment from it.
So… more of it!
‘Four Fires’ EP is out now. 13 minutes. A Summer documented in 4 songs. The sound of stepping out of my comfort zone. An important stepping stone full of upbeat tunes (and one downbeat one). Them’s the facts. When you listen to it you can make up your own mind about it 
I’m not great at the self promotion but I like doing a good “thank you”. So in the spirit of that…
Thank you so much Michael Bell of Start Together Studio Belfast for helping me produce, record and mix these songs over a number of weeks, and making this EP a reality. 
Big up The Rhythm Section for beefing up ‘Smokescreen’ and giving it a funky spirit 
My thanks once again to Marsden Mastering for absolutely nailing the mastering process first time and the words of encouragement.
And of course to Help Musicians for their support, because I literally couldn’t have made it without them!
The link is below to listen to it. I’m very happy about this one. 
I appreciate all the support

There. She. Is.
I can tell ya that my new EP of freshly recorded songs will be out next Wednesday 12th October. It’s called ‘Four Fires’ and took roughly one Summer to make. It’s been a real learning experience and the most memorable EP making process I’ve had so far thanks to Michael Bell and Start Together Studio Belfast
I’ll be very happy and proud to have it out in the world!
