All Edinburgh Theatre” (Edinburgh Fringe 2016)

SINGLES

The Night is Falling

Bjork like vocals, Eraas meets In the Nursery, a Gothic Tangerine Dream... Inspired by the TV Show Yellow Jackets, this track takes you by the hand and guides you through dark snowy forests into a night full of exquisite terror-filled magic!

We Shall Overcome

The Pandemic, Climate Change, Crazy Politics, Conspiracies and Misinformation... What to do when the world is coming apart?

Originally written in 2020 during the first 4 months of lockdown. However, we are not short of pandemics and disasters, so I figure it is still highly relevant...

Where Have all the Good Guys gone?

Desperation Bridget Jones style is not my idea of a good time... but it happens to the best of us! What to do? Take the piss out of the situation, have a good laugh and count yourself lucky you are not like the lady on this track!
