If this gets 100 likes by tomorrow - Thursday 18 August - I will record an exclusive acoustic EP for my tour of new songs… otherwise I won’t, as I would make 100 and want to be sure it’s worth my time and money to press them. #music #singersongwriter

One year ago today, @davidfordisdead and I sat listening to the record we had recorded that day in a 13 hour life session. A record we wrote the week before in two days, two days after meeting. It’s called ‘48 Hours’ and is one of my favourite things I’ve ever made. x

My 6 year old son just told me the secret to art. He is an artist. "You have to have fun. If you pay attention too much, you won't have a lot of fun. So you can close your eyes and just scribble, and you can see what it looks like when you open your eyes." #artist #art #wisewords
