With the first day day of the year, are you going to put your money where your values are? That's how we fight back. Goto a media outlet or musician's website (or creator's Patreon) and find out how you can support them. More ideas here www.drownedinsound.org/25-ideas-to-...

An upcoming release (finally...) - Steam. We used the sound of steam trains as the starting point for the rhythm. Bryan Lea Bradford guested on harmonica - he's bloody good. youtu.be/8UOL_b4MwhM?...
