About Me

Domestic bliss
A song craftsman. Author: Scott Cryer
Even better than Jim Pearson's first album, Unlucky For Some is chock full of beautifully visual, almost cinematic songs that seem so damn 'real'. The lyrics steer far clear of melodrama and deliver honest stories, tales and thoughts that stay with you for days. It's as if each song is a screenplay in it's own right with a backdrop of instrumenation that swings from simple elegance to punchy bittersweet tension. Well worth repeated listens.

Where did our time go?

I've had this song on the go for a while. I have been waiting to record some brass, but that is taking a while, so I thought I'd stick it up anyway.Big thanks to Russ Sargeant for playing upright bass...
