‘The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation.’

Henry Thoreau

‘Around Here’ is the first single from the upcoming EP ‘How the Night Gets in’ (scheduled for release in November 2024). In keeping with the overarching sentiment of the EP, the song is a comment on time passed, opportunities missed and potential neglected, told from the point of view of someone trying to convince themselves those things are just misplaced.

Recorded and produced by Elysha Clay (@leashacmusic) at her studio in York and featuring the exceptional Tommy Fuller (@tommyfullerbass) on bass.

‘How the Night Gets In’ is a semi-confessional four song EP told loosely from the standpoint of a musician reviewing their efforts and escapades so far. Each of the tracks recount a slightly different aspect of looking back over the first half of a career and contemplating the second with no small amount of trepidation.

Produced and engineered by Elysha Clay and featuring the truly outstanding Tommy Fuller on bass, this chiefly guitar/bass/vocal EP is intended aesthetically to be as intimate as possible, with the fleeting use of other instruments representing hard-to-kill seams of hope and grandeur.
