Leaving It All Behind - James Hawken

Do you ever feel like you've had enough? You need to make changes in your life? I felt like this and as usual, sat at the piano. I used the instrument to 'reset' my frame of mind, as a bridge from one life experience to another. The result is an expressive, dynamic piece full of changes of pace and touch. The overall effect instilling an air of calm and closing of a chapter. It's mood is also positive and conveys a feeling of optimism for the future.

Shutterdog - The Felling

Shutterdog emerged in 2018 – a fresh 5-piece filled with future-soul swagger. Fronted by the honeyed voice of Amy Greed and crowned by duelling funk guitars, theirs is a high energy brand of groove with a message.By using aspects of Arabic, Afro-Cuban, and Indian music in a western songwriting context, Shutterdog provides a crucial first step for listeners to begin exploring other cultures. Led by vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Matt Nobile who served as the lead vocalist and principal songwriter for the world music band Datura Road from 2015 to 2020. The band’s diverse repertoire meant often switching between the guitar, oud, and penny-whistle within a single set of music.
