Finally unleashed!

Been away from the blog for a lil while so including the obvious should probably fill you in on the new goings on in my life.

Well firstly, let's start with the biggest: Serenity.

Well it's been a long time in the making (well a year..) but finally my new album: Serenity is available for you all to download on iTunes! SO excited about this album, not least because it's technically my first 'full-length' album (A Brief History Of Us was only 9 tracks, this has 13) but the production on this album is SO far forward from where A Brief History left off.

As mentioned in previous post, of my own admission ABHOU was rushed toward the end and that (to me anyway) shows when you listen to it. The only real 'stand out' track on it is Don't Heal. And that I think is because the vocals are so clear with just the guitar in the background, no funny effects, drum machines or gimics. That was the tone I wanted to set for Serenity.


The main focus of this was YouTube. You guys always like the covers I put up and granted, one day I'd love to have a band behind me but you can't replicate that with machines...not well anyway.

Serenity is a 13 track rollercoaster of new original heart-felt material from me and your all time favourite covers from YouTube. All of which recorded, re-recorded and then meticulosly reviewed to ensure they're perfect. As mentioned the following video, the way I chose the covers was to find the most viewed on YouTube and re-record them in a proper studio. After all that's what you guys want to hear right?



I know you'll all love the album from start to finish. It breaks out with the dark original song Look What You've Done To Me and takes you through a journey of different styles, songs and melodies to lead into the finale of Blue's Best In Me in which I sing the highest note ever! And then, specially for the holiday season a cover of WHAM's Last Christmas both of which I STILL get comments on now!

The album is ONLY available to download from iTunes but the plus point is it's only £7.99 so won't break the bank.

I urge you all to download it as the more downloads it receives the higher up the charts it climbs, then people from MCA, Sony, Fueled By Ramen etc are more likely to spot this 'random guy from YouTube making a storm in the charts' and so (hopefully) leads to the process of being signed, touring worldwide and doing this for a living for the rest of my life!

If you think I can go all the way, and you want a nice easy listening album for a Sunday afternoon. Click this link and help makes my dreams come true! 

The other thing you guys may have notice in my new video is my new look!

Fancied a change so have ditched the simpleton haircut and gone for a bit of a mohecan! Not to mention the eagle-eyed viewer will also have spotted yet ANOTHER tattoo! lol. Gone a but nuts with them and that now makes 5...more planned though. Really felt like ditching the old me and starting afresh so everything has changed, looks and mindset.

I'm here to stay, with music and always pushing to achieve my dream but I need your help to do that.

Finally, I cannot thank you guys enough for what has been an emotional and crazy rollercoaster of the last 5 years (since I started posting on YouTube) and I can't wait for the next 5. Keep watching, keep tweeting and keep downloading because the more people who hear my music, the closer I get to you all, in every way..

Thank you so much for your continued support and I wish you all a very Merry Christmas!
