It's been a while...

...and I have neglected this page. I have been continuing with my music writing though and will post the stuff I've had published on other outlets on here as soon as I get a second.

To keep you occupied in the meantime, have a listen to these few songs which are current favourites of mine. The first is by a massively underrated band, The National who have been releasing and performing for nearly a decade now but are only just coming into the limelight. Next is angelic French songstress Charlotte Gainsbourg, who for her latest record has made an unlikely professional alliance with kook-meister Beck, but with some brilliant results. And finally is the pairing of actress Zooey Deschanel and folk charmer M Ward, who have teamed up to form She & Him, a melodic blend of Californian folk-pop.
Let me know what you think.
