Unearthed from the vaults - a song recorded 25 years ago, now released to give everyone hope (and something to listen to) during the enforced stay-at-home routine we're all enduring. Keep the faith!
Our tribute to our late father is now available on Spotify.
Atmospheric organ, stinging guitar, punchy singing, hard-charging rhythms . . . and the most unlikely ('The Murder at the Taco Land') character story song akin to something you’d find on an early Bruce Springsteen album.
