All my recordings are as a full band - but the band is just me. My split personalities and alter-egos have been making music together since we were 10 years old, previously gigging regularly in Nottingham with two bands until moving to the South West of England in 2003.

Story behind the song
It's our new book...
Lyrics
She was trying to impress, he was trying hard not to undress her. Just three months since they pulled. When she mentioned kids there was a pregnant pause, he hadn’t even thought about in-laws. He said I’m lost for words, and that’s not something I can say too easily. I’m speechless as you’ve heard. I’ll turn a new leaf but its novel for me, you’re a new page from a different story. But I do love you – you say that you love me too. With innocence so sweet it knocks you off your feet, and when you’re on the ground you pick yourself up. He said I don’t belong. She said I know you – know you’re wrong about that. He said say that again. In a year or two we’ll get a mortgage, pull down the shutters and pull up the drawbridge. I do love you – you say that you love me too. With innocence so pure, too big to ignore, and when you’re on the floor you pick yourself up. He was trying to read the signs but he found her absent, alone inside her head. Thinking hard about a time further on and down the line, when all this would be behind, wondering if he’d change his mind. She did the earlies, he worked the late shift. It wasn’t easy to make their lives fit. Words got scary and feelings frantic, but they kept their story a romantic. Spiral bound in chaos and confusion, Just a short forward but a long conclusion. I will love you – you said that you’ll love me too. There’ll be tears of laughter, lots of happy ever afters, there’ll be no last chapter in our new book.
