Default New fingerstyle / vocal tune Cocoon, for your ears and eyes.

I’d just like to nervously announce that my first new single in 7 years, Cocoon, is out now on all streaming platforms. From the forthcoming album The Faintest Idea.

This song is for my intrepid daughter, Indigo. “Stop worrying dad.” - Indi, aged 3. I will try.

I'm watching the video and thinking... "I can barely tune my guitar with a Polytune, much less use the tuning pegs as part of the song".

Awesome performance! And the song itself is beautiful but I am especially curious about the guitar. I couldn't figure out what it is. Sounds amazing.

Wow, mesmerising. You are pushing those boundaries out further and further. Great tune and sentiment - thanks for sharing.

Amazing skill. Please don’t wait another 7 years. I’d already enjoyed your YouTube channel (big fan of “Ain’t Nobody”), glad there’s something new.
Thanks for announcing it here.

Thanks for all the nice words everyone! And for showing me how to embed a video on here.

Here's my new one, "Deep Sea Fishes", released today. Fingerstyle guitar and voice again. It's a love song for a hideous lonely creature, and is in no way autobiographical...



Hope you like it.
