The Boy In The Diving Bell, out today. 17 tracks of psych alt-folk, tape loops, and acoustic laments. Made with a 1960s reel-to-reel, first takes, mistakes left in. Warts, bed-hair, yesterday’s breath.

On CD, vinyl, and download. Links in bio.

Hello world. When I’m not modelling typewriters or polishing a gingery, salt and pepper beard, I make musics. One feller said “lyrics straight out of the Unabomber’s diary.” Another called me “a genuine weirdo-auteur.” Have a listen: flakebelly.bandcamp.com

What In The World You Gonna Do Now? from The Boy In The Diving Bell

A live, one-take acoustic guitar and vocal performance recorded in the studio, where a right royal knees up was had by all involved.

1) This is out today

2) it's really quite good

3) no one seems to be listening to it

4) no one seems to be buying it

5) you could change that

An #experimental 'water-based' #ambient double album rich in aquatic #sound-design and stolen radio waves.

All About Her is one of the bare-boned songs on my album The Boy In The Diving Bell. Indie-folk with a hint of bluegrass, recorded double-tracked live in the studio – minimal overdubs, just music in a room, flaws intact.
