Death of a Mystery

About

It's an exercise in songwriting. Something I'm always working on. There's a bit of homespun production but I mostly stripped it back. Some songwriting influences who shine through on this one are Andrew Fagan, Martin Newell and Patti Smith.

Favourite Moment

The point where I overcame the despair and negativity and found what I did to be instrinsically worthwhile.

Advice

Yep definitely! Time constraints, the realities of what I can do within a month. That writer's block is bullshit and you've just gotta keep pushing. I learned I'm not a very good audio editor!!!
