about

The second of two collections of my favourite songs and demos I made and released before I became a full-time artist and/or used a mastering engineer!

When I was trial-and-erroring, learning, flopping and working through my new diagnosis of OCD and how it impacted the past, present and future me.

Volume two includes my favourite tracks from a bubblegum pop concept demo album I made called Double Life. Writing about a character (which, admittedly, had many elements of myself within her and also elements of who I wished I was) was an important step in my journey towards discovering my sound and learning about production. I didn't really have the confidence at the time to follow the concept through, BUT there were bangers amongst the crappers, including some songs that I played during my first ever live shows.

Oh, and obviously there are some other random demos thrown in there for good measure.

Hope you enjoy!

The Prettiest Curse
by Hinds

supported by 4 fans who also own “the early years - volume two (2015-2016)”

I liked Hinds before The Prettiest Curse but something in this particular album made me a bona fide fan. The sound is just something else, every song is brimming with personality. crystalsagittarius

Frantic Semantic EP
by Grow Rich

supported by 4 fans who also own “the early years - volume two (2015-2016)”

This EP is deftly, cleverly constructed. It balances a tight control against a sense of wild whimsy, a clean construction against some delightfully messy noise, and a powerfully melodic sensibility against a willingness to be jarring and surprising. Great stuff! markbeall
