A song about my wife. Recorded 2005.
I'd just taught myself how to play piano (badly).
I'd always wanted to be Freddie Mercury when I was younger... still got a bit of a ways to go.

A cover of Justin Currie's Sleep Instead of Teardrops. Recorded 2010.
It has always been one of my favourite Del Amitri songs. I was strumming away at it one day and my missus said I should record it...

I tried to send a comment on here giving you my email (iris_selene@sbcglobal.net). If it worked, no need to even read this one, it's just the same stuff. I want to thank you for your feedback and we should chat, talk music, and I should get to listening to more of your stuff too. You're a great musician. Alright, thanks so much, hope we talk soon!
Pop-rock song. Recorded 2009.
I wrote this several years earlier and rehearsed it with the last band I was in.
The recording was my first "serious" project on my Boss MBR, I was stunned that you could do something like this on a little silver…
Hearing traces of early Bowie! Woot! Love you in this poppier guise, but your voice shines fantastically towards the rock out close! (Also, loving those "ba ba baas"!)
THIS IS THE OLD YEURGH MIX - THERE IS ANOTHER ONE HIGHER UP THE LIST NOW, FULLY LOVED BY AR. THIS ONE IS LEFT HERE AS A MONUMENT TO SOMETHING OR OTHER (AND IN CASE YOU PREFER IT)
Acoustic ghost story. Recorded 2010.
Easter 2010 I decided…

Acoustic tale recorded Christmas 2010.
I wrote it years ago. Even tried rehearsing it with the band I was in at the time. But I couldn't play it properly. It took several weeks of practicing DADGAD (never really used it in anger before) until…
One of my two contributions to a "Beatlesfest" we had over on songcrafters.org a few months back.
I still can't believe I covered this... having done it though, it feels like nothing is sacred. And, more worryingly, I feel I might possibly…
I saw this I was like "Oh hell yes!" And then I listen and it's like.... a harder rockin version..... wow! Very interesting in a really cool way. This song can tug at my heart strings no matter what. The brilliance of the Beatles can be conveyed through any way you wanna play it..... thanks for this one!

Recorded Oct 2010.
It was meant to be a full band pop-rock song. But I started overdubbing on the original exploratory demo I'd done to work out the arrangement (with no click track). I kept coming back to it intending to start afresh... but…
Acoustic love song. Written and recorded between Christmas 2010 and the New Year.
I'd just finished recording Elizabeth's Room and was tooling up to record a pop-rock song when this little beast popped out of nowhere, almost perfectly formed…
New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…

Soulful...always playing for the song, a musician's musician. I dig the low organ and how it pops out at the end of the bridge. Another Great performance.

You and me both, buddy! Haha. Nah I kid. It just seems really hard to get people to listen to new music. There's just so much of it around. :)
But thanks again. Much appreciated.

Andrew...best song I have heard in a long long time...i am blown away. Everything is perfection on this. Your voice is great...your voice is similar to Ed Roland from Collective Soul...but more soulful....I must listen to this 500 more times....thanks for sharing.
I've been messing around playing guitar from time to time... I came up with some progressions and thought maybe I should lay down some tracks since I haven't posted in a while. I found the beginnings of some lyrics I had jotted on my iPhone and…
I just acquired a five string banjo. It was broken and I did a lot of work to it. It is now playable, though I'm waiting on some parts (the 5th string tuner is no good so it only has 4 strings, and I have to tune of of those 4 using vise grips…
Yes - Like it. Really works like this.
I want to get a banjo, but I'm filled with trepidation over what sort to get - so I keep putting it off.
This has re-awakened the urge.
This is one that I started with a synth progression and over the week it grew....
Everything is in there but the kitchen sink I think. Used midi for GB synth sounds, choirs, bass, Kontakt strings and organ, piano,horns, sax lab for sax, godin…

Music and Lyrics by OsCKilO 2013
I had never seen a place so cold...
Glad I don't live there any more.
Happy that I like the simple life...
Bright lights.
Sun and Moon.
Any Star that lead away from you.
Now I move on, not moved…
Just me and my acoustic.
I've just learned how to record both at the same time.
I didn't know this song the day before this recording.
It was done in one take, with dodgy guitar playing, wrong lyrics and sore throat :)
from the jail cell came a song from the condemned .......

No it's not the Zep track....it's a bit of blues Reg style thinking of those poor folk who survived the levee breaking in New Orleans but had nothing and had lost loved ones.......

This is the title track off my second album. That means it's not a new track, or recording. It was written in summer of 2012 and recorded around October or November of that year. But it had not been put up here and I thought I would share it…
A little sick; but couldn't resist.

The lighthouse is still: calling me out to play.
I know we flipped the covers, but still I can feel the waves
The glass in the mirror, wont mean a thing till the wind sings along.

Home Again

I was brought up just north of New York City
Where the Merrit greets the Hutch
In a noisy house on a quiet street
Where the neighbors know too much
There's a weekend in spring when they throw out old things

!!! Oh heavens...unbelievably sad. The production and performance are polished and professional but, ouch, my heart.
Like that!
One of my middle names is Elizabeth, so this is automatically cute to me. Don't really have words, I just really like it. Good job!

Love the folky ness. Quite soulful! Lovin the lyrics too. All of it, quite good, yes indeed.
Andrew does it again!
Brilliant...I can here this in a movie if you get my drift? Reminds me of Cat Stevens.
I really like your singing, i feel that you put a lot of yourself into your songs. Very melodic guitar lines too, i like slide arrangements!
Soulful...always playing for the song, a musician's musician. I dig the low organ and how it pops out at the end of the bridge. Another Great performance.
That *SLIDE* adds the perfect touch. Fantastic song!
Dude...this song is killing me. That slide guitar is placed perfectly in the spectrum...everything is....god damn that is a good tune...jeez louise!
You and me both, buddy! Haha. Nah I kid. It just seems really hard to get people to listen to new music. There's just so much of it around. :) But thanks again. Much appreciated.

First of yours I've heard. Nice one. Got me clicking the "Follow" button.
Yep, like this version too.

Cool version.
Nice one. I like everything-but-kitchen-sink music anyway (well, I can't not, can I?!), love how you've fitted it all together. Gorgeous track.
Oh yes, love it. Around two minutes, the stuff on the right (I'm in headphones) scared the crap out of me!! I actually ducked as it appeared lol
Aww, this is fabulous.
Yo T :-) Good to hear some new stuff from you. Like it.
Oops! Wrong account... that was me :-) Yeah... love the vocal
Another goodie. Where DO they all come from?! :D
Oh this is class. Love it.
Like it! Lots
Yeah, like it... DIY and all!
You are a crazy man! One of a kind...
Nice one.
Another cool chorus. And you're not alone on the subconscious song subject!
Nice one, like the chorus a lot.
Glad you couldn't resist. Love it.
Don't know the original, but I like this version.
Yep, cool RPM. Nice one. Digging the Stones and Crowes type boogie.
