Sounds Like: Something we both know - This version is from the live session i did a few weeks ago. Ignore the double tracking on the vocals, its not meant to be there. Overdubs on this track are going to happen very soon...

My old good friend - Just the band minus the overdubs. Very raw. Still i think it sounds cool.

The sun is no fun without you - I hope to get some piano and possibly a pedal steel guitar on this one. Need to find someone who plays one first...

Not really my scene - This is a clip from an unfinished recording which i did with my mate Lavar years ago. I do plan to re-record it at some point in the future.

My code broke

I'm not sure how, but the code went all weird for my page and put massive black blocks everywhere so you couldn't see anything. I haven't had a chance to do a new one yet so I'm going back to basics f...

roughs up!

I've posted some rough mix versions of my live session from a few weeks ago. There will be more lovely stuff added to these recordings very soon. It feels a bit rubbish to post unfinished stuff, but ...

Festivals

I had to great pleasure to get a free ticket for the Sunday at Latitude. I only managed to see Jeremy Warmsley, Gruff Rhys, Jarvis Cocker and Arcade Fire but it was still brilliant. I'm playing 'Lodes...

Something we both know

I've put up a new version of the hit single 'something we both know'. I've had this for ages but decided i didn't like it. I had a cold when i recorded the vocals and i need to massively remix it but ...

The Lowery Jukebox / CD available

I've put two new recordings up this evening, both in demo form. I think i'm going to make an effort to change the songs round quite often, kinda like a jukebox, except I get to choose all the songs. ...

Last gig for a bit...

The gig at The Luminaire on Sunday 29th April will probably be my last one for a while. I want to spend some time rehearsing with the new 5-piece line up, get some new songs sorted and get some record...
