I had a week off work, and with lockdown limiting options on how to spend the time, I set myself a challenge of recording and releasing a song in that single week (to put it in context Hurry On Sundown and Collared Dove both took me several months!).
The lyrics were inspired by a trip to the local supermarket! The time pressure helped me to resist the temptation to try to perfect, and instead adopt a ‘that’ll do’ attitude which lends itself to a punk rock feel. It’s rough around the edges, plenty of mistakes have been left in, and it’s practically a live performance. I like that. It’s a messy, human noise!
