about

Towers on the Sea is my first professionally recorded and produced 6 song EP. The songs have all been written in the last year, it includes Towers and The Whale.

It has been kindly recorded and produced by Ben Parcell who also played most of the instruments. Rough and ready my playing and vocals maybe; but I’m rather pleased with this creative endeavour - my thanks go out to the local acoustic musicians for their help – Ben, Brodie, Whiskey Dogs, cheers guys!

“Now I wish to wordfully reveal a song
about a certain kind of fish,
yet with the craft of verse,
through the heart’s thoughts
and concerning the great whale…

…When, crafty in crime, he perceives
those who have come upon him,
abiding fast, keeping their camp,
wishing for good weather—
then forthwith, he turns downward
into the salty waves, with them as plunder,
this ghast of the spear-waves, seeking the bottom,
and then affixing that ship with its crew,
drowned in that deadly hall...”

The Whale from the Book of Exeter.
