Classic Pop Magazine review for ‘This Short Sweet Life’ by @torn_sail from 2017. I’m still proud of this baby, and have 10 or so long playing records lying around at bandcamp/discogs/tornsail.com if you need one in your life. #nottinghammusic #classicpopmagazine #tornsail #marklanegan @marklanegan @lee.horsley.18 @jeffdavenport4786 @brown_fang @wyndhamwallace @rachelfoster774 @e.r.thorpe @movedrill

This is a still from a wonderful timeless film made by @robert_cook_369 for my friend E.R Thorpe for some new music she’ll release in the not too distant future. I’m lucky enough to have seen the film and heard the music - sang harmony for the recording actually - and it really is special and worthy of yours and ours fraught and hectic lifetime. It’s music for us, from the heart. There’s currently no label or website or distribution or mailing list - life is full on - but watch this space and I’ll try and spread the word from here. You can come and listen to Emma opening for @torn_sail on 1st December at the Running Horse, Nottingham. @e.r.thorpe @runninghorsenottingham #singersongwriter #nottinghamgigs #darkfolkmusic

Remixing. With a 1972 Vox AC30, naturally. A good year. #voxac30

This little picture of a prince, a princess is one of the few remaining treasures I have from my days working at the Cottesmore & Somerby Household Refuse Sites in the early ‘90’s. I wrote the germs of a lot of songs there in my cabin, out in the sticks, during 12 hour days in the snow and sun often alone, earning my pound an hour cash-in-hand with a generous psychedelic breakfast thrown in. The prince, the princess inspired Sadness All Over - a song from the new @torn_sail album. It’s just gone for mastering, and should be out in the world next year. We’ll see. #tornsail #sciencefriction #psychedelic #huwcostin @michaelchapmanguitar @e.r.thorpe @brown_fang @lee.horsley.18 @movedrill @henryclaude_ @lemone_ranger @jonny8track @joakim_boren @specialdesignstudiouk

Vocals now recorded for Blood Drain Away, the last track still in the machine for the forthcoming Torn Sail record. I’ve been knocked out by Dean Geary’s words and delivery since playing a few gigs with him in the artists refuge that is the North Nottinghamshire town of Retford. I’m so pleased and grateful he let me use two of his recordings in the maelstrom of music the band and I have made - spoken word pieces - ‘Drive’ and ‘Steerpike Rainbow’. The moment I set his voice against the music was like a lightning strike. These moments are the moments a musician, a producer, an artist lives for. #tornsail #spokenword #swanyardstudios

Rare smiling situation. #tornsail #dorothypax Picture: @type_404 Thank you.
