Gavin Atkins
A poet, storyteller, and a songwriter I be; with wing’ed words, sweet music stirs to lift the spirit free. Donovan and Cohen meet James Taylor; they embrace this broad-minded Romanticist’s contemporary face.

Hello!
Thanks for having a listen to my songs. But you may be thinking "who's Gavin?" I'm just a guy with a guitar and a story or two. I've spent my life trying to express what I feel for no other reason than to show empathy. I believe in freedom; that it's a state of mind that can be reached by letting go and reaching out to our loves and ambitions. And there is a fire in my heart; like the fire in the hearth, slowly, it burns and consumes the substance, returning my soul to the aether. So little time... so much to learn...
A Lover's Odyssey
With a unique blend of storytelling, song and poetry, Gavin presents his 27-year journey from first love, through lost virginity and on in search of true love.
Often humourous, the story entwines 12 heartfelt songs, each one concluding a chapter of the journey. Read the first chapter here . Available to buy direct from Gavin's website .
“... well-written, tastefully produced and [the music] compliments the the book/story beautifully.†— Cliff Goldmacher , Music Producer, New York and Nashville
