A great tune co-written and produced by myself with the very talented Bridget Sweeny. Bridget recently moved to Ireland from New York and I was fortunate enough to gain her as my neighbour. This is hopefully the first of many collaborations. I recently co-wrote and produced a fantastic tune with the incredibly talented Bridget Sweeny.

Melancholy Air Instrumental - Daisy Chute
MELANCHOLY AIR INSTRUMENTAL from the EP ‘CRADLE SONGS’ by Daisy Chute "Burns Night is a tradition I hold dear, especially as a displaced Scot in London. But every year we gather and recite the same poetry and songs, and I've often wondered about all the Scottish poetry that gets left unread, especially from the female perspective. I wanted to unearth some lesser known poetry so Cradle Songs are settings of the poems I discovered and connected with on my hunt. The poems are about mourning (Mary Queen of Scots's Melancholy Air), unrequited love (Marion Angus's Mary's Song), and motherhood (Carolina Oliphant's Cradle Song), and span from the 16th to the 20th Century." ‘Cradle Songs’ featuring 'Melancholy Air Instrumental' released 28 January 2022.
She-Oak Affair - Kissing The Flint
Written by Leah Chynoweth-Tidy for her debut Kissing The Flint EP 'Unconditionality' released in 2019, this upbeat track reminds us that life far too often gets manic and we need to remember to take the time to slow down or stop and smell the roses. Or in this case, relaxing on the sand under the shade of a She-Oak tree, gazing at the sea and downing a cold drink - or three!
