Album Notes

I was born between a sewer plant and a mental hospital near York in England in 1980, immediately indicating the strange waveform my life would run on. My biological father died before I can remember. I was a goody-two-shoes pupil at the Duke of Kent School in Surrey and for a few years at St. Peter's School in York, a true star at maths and languages and total teachers' pet until one day I bought my first pair of black jeans and The Doors' first album. Suddenly everything looked different.

I went to college studying American Studies - a Mickey Mouse course, as I believe such things are known, and indeed, my final dissertation was on Disney. I came out of that place with the usual excess of debt, but it gave me time to think. It was somewhere during this time that I began really discovering a wider range of music and writing my own songs - to begin with, usually for girls I thought I wanted ... then, 9/11 happened, and everything looked different again.

I lost a few years with something of an identity crisis which I'm probably still in the midst of. Finally, I told myself I had to release something to the world, and the result, after far too long, are these 13 songs. They're not what I was attempting - they're more, simply, what came out of me. Whatever they are, I'm letting them go at last, and I hope you get something out of them.
