about

7 years ago today my beautiful mother passed away. It seems like only yesterday we were talking and smiling. She was the best. It’s taken 6 years longer than expected but I’ve finally recorded her an album. This is a pre-mix version and there may be strings added, but I wanted to share it with you all today as a special mark of respect to her. It is a kind of meditation on piano. The journey goes from birth, to my mum, to life spiralling away, to Layne, to obsession and the path to darkness, to a sense of tranquility and finally escape and release. It’s been a hard 4 months, and Gianni’s death definitely brought up feelings I hadn’t dealt with after mum died. Losing your mum is quite possibly the hardest moment in life... and something we all deal with at some point. Love to Katherine and Lizzie, and my niece and nephew and of course Dad. Please listen and enjoy Josephine, and share so people hear it. I will be doing an album launch soon, once the final strands are put on and mixed in. Love you Mum. You’re always in my heart.
