The first song I wrote for RPM2017, and the first one on this 'album'. It was witten on Ukulele with two whole chords (Chord one is a barre at the second fret, and chord two is all of the strings open). Whilst not the most musically sophisticated…

Written/recorded for RPM2017 (album in a month). This one was written on Ukulele, (well that opening section was), and built upon that. The tongue in cheek lyric, is somewhat inspired by a friend who has recently become single, and isn't all…

Written/Recorded for RPM2017 (album in a month). A bit of a weird song, written on guitar (and it shows). A slightly unsettling chord movement which fights the prettiness at points, I think. The backwards guitar and wailing at the end was…
