My latest single "Cigarette Machine" is available now. This is a cover I did from a Canadian artist named Fred Eaglesmith. I've wanted to cover and release one of his songs for a long while and this one just felt right. When I was a teenager, I was given the chance to work for Fred for a few years. He used to own a vintage music shop which sold records, guitars and all kinds of instruments. I was the only one there most days, so it was a lot of lonesome guitar playing and listening to old records. Fred would come by the shop and chat when he was home from touring. I didn’t realize until much later how much those years and that relationship impacted my writing and music.
I'm excited to hear your thoughts on this tune. I appreciate the opportunity to be able to share my favourite songs with all of you.
