Put me in front of any musical instrument and after time I gain the ability to use it as a channelling device which interprets that which I am feeling into sound.
Recorded in 2013, this track represents a special private moment when I sat at a grand piano in my Uncle's house in Cambridge and for the first time in ten years I played what I was feeling using a piano instead of a guitar.... whilst recording it on my iphone.
It has a slightly sad feeling for me.... with a little bit of hope towards the end!
I was just about to leave the UK forever and set out on my barefoot journey across the Pyrenees Mountains, and there were many things (like my cat for example!) I didn't feel good about saying goodbye to.
The journey ahead was calling me and I was ready finally to answer this call.
Hope you enjoy this little snippet of rare piano creativity from my past.

I think I needed this post... as a way of taking my mind off volcano related matters.
Hope you have a moment to listen to it and give me some feedback :)
