Own Material
Turn and Face the Wind
One of our new tunes. The title originally came from battling horizontal rain at a festival.
Cactus Road
A song inspired by a trip to Arizona last year, the silence of the desert and a combination of various historical anecdotes.
Canmore Creek
A liitle instrumental peice named after a small stream that was once the centre of a coal mine in Canmore.
Thursdays Child
Mic's first song with Mic on Gtr and Vox, Mark on Mandolin, Nylon Gtr and Backing vox
Common Ground
Common Ground is a 25 year old song previously performed in heavy rock style in "The Path" a band with Steve Chapman, Phil Bailey and Julian Clarke in the 1990's. Now it gets the acoustic treatment..
The River
Some fiddly fingerpicking...
