Winter Is Here
Released: 15MAY2026
My 3rd solo EP album is titled Winter Is Here.
WIH has 7 new songs which includes a traditional sea shanty and also my rendition of Valdy's Play Me A Rock 'n Roll Song. The remainder are all original compositions.
The album's perspective is that of a guy who has more years behind him than ahead of him. I thought that the season of Winter was a more than appropriate metaphor.
The overall tone of the album is a simple, very acoustic, grassroots, folk sound. A return to my musical roots.
WIH Songs Include:
-
This Old Road
-
Life Lines
-
A Waltz For My Sister
-
Living For the Dash
-
Where I Belong
-
Play Me A Rock 'n Roll Song
