about

During a live stream on new years eve I announced, without actually thinking about it that I would release my new song the following Friday, giving myself five days.
This was written on December 28th, recorded and mixed on my 8 track on January 3rd and 4th and released on January 5th 2024.
I played it to Charlie McFarley and he came up with the excellent artwork which reminds me of Calvin and Hobbes and Peanuts. I love it.
I really hope you enjoy this single

Stop the war

lyrics

For a short while

Been looking forward
To new years day
Might seem like
Wishing my life away
But seeing out
Old years night
Hoping things are different
In the dawns grey light

Although
Nothing really changes
Still the wars are raging
Time for a little optimism
Stop the war
Stop the missiles rain
At least for a short while

Happy new year

Although
Nothing really changes
Still the wars are raging
Time for a little optimism
Stop the war
Stop the missiles rain
At least for a short time

Happy new year
Stop the war
Happy new year
Give peace a chance
Happy new year
Stop the missiles rain
Happy new year
At least for a short time

about

Wob UK

Acoustic Country/folk Punk probably describes me best at the moment

"A spring heeled, iron lunged avalanche of energy and melody.
Wob's sound is a glorious and intelligent blend of punk, pop and folk."

Blossoms And Bicycles

Passionate, sharply observed songs from a brilliant singer-songwriter. Considering this is a 24-track double album, the hit-rate is frankly astonishing. And all the stars and all the fire crews are out for us tonight... Jon South
