Artist picture
Singer-songwriter, arranger and producer: acoustic contemporary folk but ranging into rock/blues/country/jazz/humour...all very eclectic, I'm afraid!
Martin Stirrup Singer/songwriter An old folkie who got back into it... These days I sing and play guitar(s) and other stringed instruments, then score and orchestrate where appropriate. My taste becomes increasingly eclectic ranging from finger-picked folk through country to soft rock mixed in with a few more alternative and eccentric numbers, including the odd novelty foxtrot...

Lyrics
MC 15 Red Sky at Night bpm 113 country blues D AI ain’t no shepherd but I know what I like D AIt don’t get better than a red sky at night D AI get to thinking as it’s sinking below D AThe world is turning and I’m ready to go G E DA (D A) Roll on… feel that red sun Sitting still whilst spinning at a thousand miles an hour Can’t but help to make you feel in awe of that power I’m fizzing with kinetic energy I feel the life force in me bursting free Roll on… feel that red sun EThere’s inner peace there in the eye of the storm GJust find the fulcrum you can make things turn AIf that sounds a little contradictory C B(D A) That’s just the way it is so don’t blame me A storm is brewing way out there to the west Bring on the maelstrom let it do its best Let all that rain pour down and wash things clean It’s where I’m going to not where I’ve been Roll on… feel that red sun
