Another new one...

As many of you know, my new solo LP 'Decide To Stay and Swim Again' was due to release early April. I've decided to put that on hold for now, as I had a few fun things planned that can't go forward given the current crisis.

In the meantime, I'm releasing some demos I've been working on.

"Undercoat" is the second song from this bushel of tunes over here kicking around in the back shed.

Download or stream it for FREE, I just ask that you please consider donating to your local food bank if you can. So many people are being laid off, losing their jobs and may be turning to our food banks for support during this crisis.

In Ottawa, here are a couple of food banks that are in dire need of financial support at this time.

The Ottawa Food Bank: www.ottawafoodbank.ca/donate/

The Parkdale Food Bank: parkdalefoodcentre.ca/donate-2/

Thanks for considering donating!

Cheers, stay safe... and reach out to your friends.

We WILL get through this together.

lyrics

Lyrics:

Sunday morning arrived
Slept under my coat
And I didn't mind
The questioning in your voice
I took this sleeping arrangement by choice
Like I wanted to.

As memories filtered down
I wasn't sure you'd still be around
Swirling here in my brain
Holding my heart
Hostage again
Like you wanted to.

Though your silence
Would light up the room
I would have loved you
To shoot for the moon
And embrace
The one thing we both knew
We'd lose again and again
Again and again and again.

It felt like anchors aweigh
When you held my hand in the sunshine that day
Quoting Maestro Fresh-Wes
You took me back down to Hollis
I guessed that you wanted to?

Though your silence
Would light up the room
I would have loved you
To shoot for the moon
And embrace
The one thing we both knew
We'd lose again and again
Again and again and again.
