New music! Making my EP "Take Me Back" in a farmhouse studio.

Here's the story of my new EP, Take Me Back. Releasing 1st December 2023. Written during 2 weeks in the winter of 2022. This EP was recorded in a farmhouse in Virginia in January 2023, inspired by the classic 60s and 70s recording where a band would set up in the same room and track a song all at once. Bringing in top level musicians who have played with the likes of Sufjan Stevens, Kacey Musgraves, Hiss Golden Messenger and Marcus Mumford - we set about to capture a raw and authentic EP. A sonic departure from the very electronic Future Forever album that precedes this release.<br />

Lyrically these songs were written during a dark period of my life. These songs in some way document that journey. Songs which leave a lot of space for unanswered questions, and which, despite being rooted in the Christian faith and in Biblical inspiration, also embrace the unknown, the highs and the lows. A journey from understanding the definition of love in "Without Love", to a meditation on darkness of the soul and a prayer for light to come in "When The Night Comes Around", to a moment of realisation and repentance in "Take Me Back", a bold declaration of the character of God and the power of the cross in "Patient & Kind" and finally a simple, hopeful song of longing to stay close to Jesus in "To Know You".<br />
