    "Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards" - Søren Kierkegaard

    I released my debut album "Disarm" in September 2010. I'd been collecting the songs together for a few years, gradually focusing my mind, building my confidence and getting ever closer to making the music that was playing in my head a reality, a tangible thing for others to share. I could never have imagined what adventures those songs would take me on, but I've thoroughly enjoyed travelling around with them ever since, feeling them grow and spread their wings and spending time with some of the people who count them as a valued part of their personal soundtracks.

    As the fifth anniversary of “Disarm” approached I started making plans to revisit some of the songs, tenderly reworking the tracks that felt the most resonant to my current self, and the ones I felt would benefit from a different sonic approach.

    This EP is the result of those efforts. Originally released in December 2015, it was an important staging post on the musical journey that continues today - one I hope you’ll join me on.

lyrics

We find so little to fight about these days, don’t we?
We don’t torture each other any more - there’s no point
So come in love let’s huddle together
As the planes carve up the sky the stars swerve satellites
Trying to send hopeful signs home

There’s no fireworks for us this year
There’s no need to make explosions in the air
So no fireworks for us this year
But I don’t mind
There’s something else

I can’t write happy songs but I
Feel safe sometimes
Won’t push you away from me any more
Oh darling press your cheek to mine, will you
Let’s pray faithlessly together for the future
If there’s one

There’s no fireworks for us this year
There’s no need to make explosions in the air
So no fireworks for us this year
But I don’t mind
No I don’t mind

There’s no fireworks for us this year
But I don’t mind
There’s no fireworks for us this year
There’s no need to make explosions in the air
So no fireworks for us this year
But I don’t mind
There’s something else
