7 days, 6 nights glowing skin, brown eyes white beaches, blue skies soft lips, oh your thighs easy smiles, sweet laughter you face in my hands, warm sand soft grass, I know this won't last it happened so fast I know what you're gonna say but I wouldn't have it any other way I'm glad I feel this way I'm glad I feel this way

she had the same strings for 10 years
until one day they snapped and she had to restring herself
then, she found herself singing

at first she felt scared that she wasn’t any good
but it brought her such joy, so she continued
and with time she forgot what good meant

she started to see the beauty of her curves,

she smelt her insides and found the smells of the wood she was made of,
surprised that after all this time the odour could be so strong
she felt the marks that had accumulated over the years;
marks of childhood
of travel
of experience

and for maybe the first time, she felt grateful just to be

I learnt the classical guitar for a couple years as a child and then I basically stopped playing it. I’d pick it up now and then to try and learn a tune but it never really went anywhere. Still, I kept my childhood guitar and carried it with me wherever I lived. Then in 2018 I moved to the Outer Hebrides to do a one year art course and I finally had time to explore that side of me. This EP/Demo puts together some parts of that journey. Recorded by yours truly on a portable Tascam microphone in my studio flat :)

So here are my recordings. They range from raw to rough. Sometimes I think - maybe I'm onto something - and sometimes I think - I've definitely lost it now.

But maybe you wanna get involved in my internal monologue? ... more
