The bands, the songs, the struggle. It's all here in
glorious stereo and sometimes mono.

A selection of demos recorded in 2009. Folky, rocky,
proggy and a punk one here and there.

 
  Darkly Park
Recorded late 2004 in a bedsit, this collection of
songs were the first solo recordings and mainly
acoustic guitar driven.
  A Pocketful Of Rain - Part 1 -
The Life And Times Of Hugo Odkirke

This album features band and solo performances
