PAUL 'POD' COUSINS

About Me

Former co-founding Bassist of Indy/Pop/Rock band 'Iggapodcrane' has gone all folk. Currently playing the Bass for Barzell and involved in a number of music projects, this is his first solo outing.

Pod draws on his experiences in life, good and bad, and paints them on an audio 'canvasse' as a form of therapy. To that end his songs tend to be forged straight from the soul. N.M.E


Here is a couple of songs here to cut your teeth on!


Overtime - written after finishing the book 'The Timetravellers wife' trying to capture the feelings of the story, 'he knows she knows' but he's not saying when.

You Will Say - This is Just a rough draft, but the rewrite doesnt capture the emotion caught in this version, so for the time being, this one will stay on for a while. Its about friends advice when your feeling down. You may not appreciate it at the time, but it always helps in the long run

The Shed Song & Stolen - just snippets - very rough drafts, I will have some time to record better versions soon.


Disclaimer.
N.M.E. used in this instance stands for 'North Mersey Elite' and should in no way be confused with the world famous 'New Music Express' magazine.
