I wrote this song over 6 years ago, just before lo I wrote this song over 6 years ago, just before losing the ability to use my voice at all due to a painful chronic issue. Many years later, occasionally I can sing softly and a little shakily like this. If you've ever been in a dark place, maybe the lyrics will mean something to you..... I miss everyone more tonight than I have in my life, I'm not feeling right. It turns out that I'm not that strong and I don’t think I'll be here for long I never thought I needed help as much as I do right now, you're all scattered around trying to get your own feet on the ground I hope that you can this time round The road that we've chosen is full of stumbles and falls but you go when you're called. I hope I'm not losing my mind because I'm sure that I used to love life Please don't believe me when I say I'm doing ok, I lie through my teeth just sit here with me for a while remind me again how to smile If this turns out to be my goodbye I just hope that you know that I tried

I'm honoured to have been part of this short film by @montybaxter I wrote the music and did the sound, along with DP @marcoeisenbarthdop and AC @samtgosiewski.mov I was moved by John's story from the moment I heard the first few phone calls, and I think this film captures so many of the struggles and triumphs we are all faced with in life - love, loss, loneliness, hope and community.

One of our only 'band' photos for Imprints, who are me, Shaun Crook and Darren @sparesock. We are working on our third album, a concept album. After years of working on it together remotely from different sides of the world, it's in its final stages! A lot of the work was done at @studiolockdown thanks to Shaun and Daz We released our first album probably about 10 years ago, on cassette tape! It was an hour long live recording with a ridiculous amount of gadgetry. Our second album Data Trails was released by @sereinlabel in 2014. It's a labour of love, and madness but I think this latest will be our most interesting and refined. And if all goes to plan, released on vinyl Check out our other stuff on my website . . . . . #imprintsmusic #ambientmusic #experimental #neoclassical #zeldamusic #zeldabotw #breathofthewild #ambient #lockdownstudios #shotonfilm #canona1 #canona135mm #canonfd #canonfd50mm #canonfd50mmf1_4

I've written a long post before about Marianna and I've written a long post before about Marianna and Lisa at @newvoicestudiobrillapaglin in Osimo, Italy. There are no words to express my appreciation for them and their work. It's so simple yet deceptively difficult - to let go of everything that stops us speaking or singing freely. You only have to turn on the radio to hear someone screaming and pushing their voice, and this trend has become so all encompassing that people not only think it's normal, but they think it's good. Yet so many of these famous singers end up with injuries and having to get surgery. It's sad to see, and even sadder to listen to! My voice issues started 6 years ago, and until recently were so severe that I could barely function, every day was full of pain and tension, avoidance and despair. Only now am I starting to be thankful that I'm going through all this, because I'm learning about the voice and myself in ways that never would have happened otherwise. I could never have done this without the guidance of these two amazing women, because nobody else in the world is teaching this! And I love this portrait, shot on a Sony a7ii with 85mm f1.8 . . . . . #newvoicestudio #osimo #italy #singing #voicework #muscletensiondysphonia #mtd #voiceissues #voiceproblems

Getting a Sak Yant tattoo by a monk in Phan, north Getting a Sak Yant tattoo by a monk in Phan, northern Thailand in 2014. A Sak Yant is a tattoo believed to hold magic power, and many laymen and monks have them in South East Asia. This one on my arm is a wish for a compassion in the world. Although since 2014 I'm not sure it's worked very well! We were wondering around this empty temple in the middle of nowhere before eventually this monk showed up. I don't think he'd seen many westerners before. He quickly scribbled the design on with a pen, and went to work. He picked these dirty old needles out of a tin, and nothing was clean or sterile, which was a bit worrying. But I'm alive so nothing too bad! It will always remind me of the most special times of my life in Northern Thailand . . . . . #sakyant #sakyanttattoo #sakyantattoo #buddhisttattoo #bambootattoo #poketattoo #northernthailand #phanthailand #chiangrai #buddhistmonk

Also missing my local little Thai restaurant in Wiang Chai, a village in the middle of nowhere. 60p for an amazing meal. I pretty much ate the same thing every day for years...Pad Pongari, so tasty.

Sorting through old photos. These are mostly from Sorting through old photos. These are mostly from my first couple of years at @newlifefoundation.thailand near Chiang Rai. I went to this place a complete mess, so anxious and worried about all the people and groups. I also was scared it might be full of new age mega hippies, one of my greatest fears! But luckily I was wrong 🙂 I owe my life to this place in many ways. The progress I made there was more than I'd made in 20 years before. I met such amazing friends who I'm still so close with. Friends who I could joke and have fun with, but more importantly who knew how to support each other and how to be then when the other fell apart. I hadn't experienced anything quite like that before. Very grateful to still be in contact with you all I have so many beautiful memories of my first few years there starting in 2013, I really felt I was just in the right place at the right time, it was euphoric...and without drugs! I feel a little melancholy when I look back on that time, as nothing quite compares now 🙂 Big love to all my new life friends from all over the world, missing you all, and to the many who sadly passed away. 🙏 . . . . . #thailand #communityliving #norththailand #newlifefoundation #memories #nostalgia #chiangrai #northernthailand
