Lovely people,
I hope you’re all feeling happy and healthy and sane this week, it has been a very dystopian week here in Los Angeles, full of curfews, lockdowns, Earthquakes and police sirens. Because of the protests all over town, my studio building was boarded up for protection. I had to pack up all my recording equipment and relocate the whole studio to our dining room on Saturday (Much to my lovely wife’s delight).
I am all for peaceful protests for a good cause, which this obviously is, but it has been ruined by the 1% in this country using a tragedy like this as an excuse for anarchy. Anyway, enough ranting from me, let’s get on with the good stuff.
After finishing and loving ‘Normal People’ last week, Krissy and I decided to write a song inspired by the show and it’s mesmerizing lead couple, hopefully it will make you smile and raise a few spirits out there. I have to say, it has been wonderful having the time to create, to just write a song because we’re inspired to. I hope you enjoy it.
A huge thank you to those of you that popped into the show last Friday. We loved having you there, especially the gorgeous NHS and Key workers.
