New Acoustic Composition: Last June

My new song – “Last June”. I wrote this for my girlfriend at the time. High quality video this time I borrowed my mum’s camera :) .

I’m normally known for playing Funky / Soul kinda stuff but recently, I’ve got right into the http://www.candyrat.com artists. Especially the awesome Andy Mckee. This song was inspired by his awesome music and the unique techniques I’ve picked up from learning his songs.

First and foremost I’m a drummer but I play a few other instruments, mainly for my own enjoyment. To be honest, I wish I had the confidence I do on drums with other instruments but I also play Bass, Guitar and Keys. I’ve been working on songs like this for my solo Jazz, Soul, Funk and Gospel Project – The Cloud9 Mission. I may well add other instruments when the time comes to record this song.

    Recording the bass line for my new solo tune – “Your Love”. This was just the first rough take but I had the camera rolling to critique my playing. As well as the bass part, I also played the other instruments on this recording too!
