We lived our lives on top of this – album out now!
The album is a clarion call to link arms and stop traffic. It’s an ode to the kindness of old friends. A forlorn wail for the never-ending pursuit of peace. It’s a defiant sprint down an empty suburban street. A lament for the inexorable erosion of hills. A document of true love.
The title is a line from an Elizabeth Strout book called ‘Oh William!’. We’re all perfect and broken and we all have these stories beneath us and between us. We build lives upon lives and we leave things unsaid.
USA-style individualism and belief in meritocracy is flawed and harmful. That kind of thinking leads to selfishness, discrimination and indifference to the less fortunate.
Everyone works hard but only some people get lucky. Once we accept that, we can work with each other for good.

Video: Can we hold this ground
It’s been a weird year
You got that pain in your heart
I wish I’d told you you’re someone
It only slows what’s coming
It’s been a weird year
We moved out to the valley
I just want to live outside of me
But can we hold this ground?
A collection of moments that I’ve collected over the past few years.
