Today the feeling that brought me to the page was time, and how long it takes to see the impact of hard work in independent music. This week one of my songs, Bubbles, was used on the Dior Summer 27 show, which was amazing. Not life changing in any way, but a signal nonetheless, and a fee, a little of which will go towards funding my next album, and the rest towards paying towards family’s life. To be transparent, as I think there’s so little of this, the fee was £6k, 50% of which goes to the syn

I have been trying to work this into the language around Alone Together more and more, and I think it’s something I’ve learned from the the last year, rather than something I knew. People are not leaving social media as far as i can see, and they don’t hate it either (even if they say they do). Even the ones looking for something more want both.

This week my feed has become a barrage of AI opinion, and the truth is I’m finding all the discourse around it really boring now, especially the industry takes served up to feed the algorithm. And yet here I am writing about it. It’s occurred to me that the reason I write, most of the time, is when I’m struggling with something. Writing is a way of processing, of creating some kind of aspirational version of how I want to feel about a subject. So I felt the urge to just explain what I’m actually

Filmed last year this little mini doc and interview was made when I was approached by some students from the film courses at University or Wesminster. I am always up for helping any young people make real things to put out in the world, so when they asked if there was something I needed doing I came up with an idea that I could actually use. A big thanks to the creative team behind this and the friends and listeners who contributed voice notes.. one of which because the sample that got the EP st
