From Here To Africa (2023)
A song about loss which took a few years to write. It started out around 1983 and eventually fell into place over twenty years later. when I had gained a bit more experience about life and death. One of my most popular songs at gigs, this duet with Katie Grace Harris, from my 'Greyest Bits' album (2023) was released as a single in Autumn 2022. Pembrokeshire Fair (Live)
When my twin daughters set out to find fame and fortune, and take on crippling debts through the medium of student loans, in dawned on me that life would never be the same again. Some of our happiest days as a family were spent in Pembrokeshire, and this song traces those years. It was featured on Acoustic Magazines Cover CD in May 2016, and there is a video of our memorable holidays on the Gallery page. A new studio recording of the song is included on my forthcoming mini album Too Soon It’s Time To Fly. For details see the MW Store page. Thanks to Downend Folk Club for the footage, recorded Friday 15th March 2019 Gather I Must (Live)Film rights are currently available for my book 'Claws' and should it ever make it beyond the shores of my imagination and on to a widescreen, this 2013 composition will be Andrew's song.

completely different feel and sentiment. A mythical tale of a man returning to the town where he grew up and discovering the neighbourhood is no longer as he remembered.

This song was written many years ago, when I was reflecting upon my years at Cheltenham Grammar School. Were they really the best days of my life? Social media has enabled me to rekindle old friendships, and also to discover that some of my old pals are no longer with us. I revisted the lyrics in 2015, and the song is included on 'The Others' CD. ISRC USJ3V1381286. Download from iTunes for 0.79p. Thanks to Brian Smith for the live footage recorded at Downend Folk Club, Bristol, on Friday 21st October 2016. Edna's Garden (Live)A song from 2022, which appears on my latest album The Greyest Bits. It's inspired by the friendly ghost which appears from time to time on sunny days in my garden. I like to think of her watching over the land that she loved, and nurtured, while gently reprimanding me for not keeping it up to scratch. This song was recorded at home, using an iPhone.
