about

Often I wonder - “what form will we have on our hands at the end of all this work?”
The recordings, the writing, the formatting - how will it all gather together?
What does it all add up to? Simply, an accumulation.

In every email sent there is a tiny sparrow of hope.

I took wing often in 2023 but not as often as I’d like.

The big break is not coming. But someone out there is listening.

Everything Was Beautiful

Wow, I'm blown away. This is one of Spiritualized's best albums in my opinion and I didn't expect that. Pierce deserves all the praise he gets, he truly is a modern rock n roll legend. I haven't been keeping up with them in recent years but clearly should have. ZWT100
