Pleased to announce that my new single, Sliding Into View (+ a bonus B-side) will be released next Friday, 7th March. You can pre-save it here + it will also be available on Bandcamp: distrokid.com/hyperfollow/...

Just saw this trailer for a new videogame about a 90's rock band, presented in the style of BoJack Horseman. Pretty much all of my favourite things combined. youtu.be/sL25NjOVf7w?...

Another tremendous single from @aleutians.bsky.social which (I think) makes 4 in was many months. Amazing to hear music of this quality being released by DIY artists/bands. Be sure to listen - particularly any Gibbard fans out there. open.spotify.com/track/0yb2BF...

This is one of the best songs I've heard in 2025. Catchy as hell and great lyrics. Any DIY musicians out there are really going to relate to this one.

Two weeks on I've made no further progress recording this song - think I need to rectify that this weekend.

New WJ is now live! Featuring my good friends Ted Kim and @kanilros.is This one’s definitely for my fellow musicians… just listen to those lyrics and you’ll immediately understand why lynkify.in/album/helsin...

“A boy, here,” is out on the 25th. As usual I’ve done zero promotion but you can presave at this link. See you soon! tr.ee/hP0FgpcDbh

Today is 1 year since I released my 2nd EP, 2 weeks after starting Last Days of Rome. The songs were written over a few years, but arranged and recorded in a week. The production is a bit shabby, but looking past that I think these are 3 of my best songs. lastdaysofrome2.bandcamp.com/album/fires-ep

Me and @kanilros.is take a look at the current streaming age in our new single, “Helsinki”, dropping this Friday. Cuz if you are a musician, you know you got a lot of friends in Helsinki 🙄 Pre-save: distrokid.com/hyperfollow/...

Started today listening to one of my favourite 3/4 indie rock songs. Magical stuff. Up next: Waltz #2. open.spotify.com/track/5bil0D...

Not sure how much crossover there is between #diysky and #gamingsky on here, but for anyone who enjoys videogames (particularly of the Metroidvania/Soulsbourne variety), I recommend playing Nine Sols. I beat this f*cker of a boss today after 3-4 hours of trying and felt very pleased with myself.

More beautiful jangle pop from the indefatigable @shopfiresmusic.bsky.social in the form a neu Neuclouds track. Love the synthy strings in this one.

Just thinking what a weird name for an album this is. Still, Cursive are an awesome band. open.spotify.com/album/1eqnRt...

I was really enjoying listening to the new Ben Kweller/Waxahatchee song on the drive into work this morning. Sounds like an instant classic. I'd love to figure out how to get a similar guitar sound to this on my recordings. open.spotify.com/track/4SjmBB...

Based on the band name, I'm guessing that these guys don't have primary-aged children.

Today's Commuter Music 👇 Giving me all the slacker pop/rock I need this morning. @publicitydept.bsky.social @safesuburban.bsky.social publicitydepartment.bandcamp.com/album/old-ma...

open.spotify.com/playlist/6jv... Awesome & eclectic 🎶 🎹 🎧 🎸 🎤 from artists to follow @dannybstyle.bsky.social @ataraxiamusic.bsky.social @bruce-essar2.bsky.social @bright-flight.bsky.social @bigemptyzero.bsky.social @rst-ambient.bsky.social @richardyot.bsky.social @phoneswithchords.bsky.social

This sounds like an absolute smash!

Really nice to see that my new single Blackout Blind is included in this week's indie tips from White Light/White Heat. Even lovelier to be sandwiched between the awesome new singles from @shopfiresmusic.bsky.social and @seaofdays.bsky.social www.whitelight-whiteheat.com/wl-wh-weekly...

I've just started recording a new song so, as is my standard practice, made this live video of me playing it yesterday. This one is for fans of acoustic finger picking. Hoping to release the 'full band' version late Feb/early March. youtube.com/shorts/nOSS7...

Shane’s sweet new track has been on constant play this weekend. Sweet dreamy sounds with hints of early 90s 4ad. Looking forward to the album:

Thanks for including my music in your playlist 🙏🎧

Thanks a million to Ts5. for including two (!) of my songs on this playlist. Same great stuff on here - check it out!

I think I'm on the verge of fulfilling my ambition to write a song that sounds a bit like Song For Kelly Huckaby by Death Cab. While I try to come up with lyrics and not me it up, listen to the real deal: open.spotify.com/track/49w2M0...
