Thanks for dropping by! Started playing in public again in 2012 after a 29 year break and have been having a ball since. If you like country rock/pop with a hint of Fleetwood Mac/Keane/Eagles/Pink Floyd - even Supertramp - then you might like my music. Many folks now do enjoy my music from all across the world. Yes, royalties are tiny (sometimes laughably so- got 0.01 from one company...) but more than 16 different digital providers regularly send royalties through every 3-4 weeks.. Sadly not enough for a decent dinner out each year but better than a poke in the eye...! While you're here check out the Musicians' page and listen to the various free downloads dotted throughout this site. Thanks!

Doodles 'EP' 2020.
Daft name, eh? Still, a mix of songs from 2016-2019. Some are a bit different to my normal style - but very much pop again. I like them and I didn't want them to hide away in some digital locker - I've got too many recorded songs in that locker! - Check Doodles out on Amazon/Spotify etc. Listen to the title track Doodles above! |
CD Trafalgar Square 2013. .Sold out. The great news is that the entire Trafalgar Square CD is now available online from this site for free! Enjoy.
CD Burnham Beach 2018. Sold out. My personal favourite CD. Musically the CD is apparantly AOMOTRR. That's Adult Orientated Middle of the Road Rock. At least that what some radio stations call it! I'd call it Easy Listening or better still: Country Pop.Have a listen to a couple of the tracks and check the videos on the page above: Not Who I Am video is very similar sound to the CD track but Burnham Beach rehearsal video ended up in a different key! Oh well - adds to the fun.

New 2021! Some new songs starting to roll slowly out...
One Minute More. Same great musicians: John Garden on keys and bass guitar; Lewis Creaven on Guitars; Greg White on drums and Daisy Chapman on Vocals. Listen and enjoy - an 'album' song for sure but can't help feel someone could take this song further to Eurovision... CD Fake News. 2019. Digital only.Ten great songs. Check out the Fake News page link above! Video on youtube and more to come. Country Pop/Pop Rock - call it what you like but enjoy! CD Just One Look 2015. Sold out- available digitally from itunes and numerous other mainstream digital retailers. Also some songs avaiable on Soundcloud. CD Not in Nashville 2016. Sold out. The idea for Not in Nashville grew in response to the many people who have asked for more of my country-style songs. It's a compilation of some songs from Trafalgar Square and 5 new tracks. Musically it is a little bit different to Just One Look (which I would try and class as Indie middle of the road??) , but I grew up playing along to Arlo Guthrie and it's really a tribute that genre - with a twist of course! Look out for it (see the page on this site and listen to a couple of the new songs. Pics below: ©John Morgan. |
