A must for lovers of 'Acoustic Music' and incredible lyrics, thats what we are all about, I am a a poet who happens to play the guitar, nice ? and I mean everyw
I am singer/songwriter from the North West of England, I have just returned from 5 years in Australia where i had to leave my violin player, sadly. We played a great deal in Syney and the Central Coast of NSW. At the moment my band is re-grouping [good phrase] I am meeting a slide bass palyer, my son is playing piano etc and my daughter will be here to play second guitar/Harmonies soon, so look for the name, but it may be me alone, part of band, or even 'McManus' The band...whole family [with new grandson!!!] Listen to original acoustic songs, incredible lyrics, love life, self, relationships, politics and generally acoustic magic, you truly are not going to hear better songs than this band performs, or the passion with which the lyrics are presented, truly a good show if you like authenticity and real songs.

Lyrics
You Have a history of standing still You have an eye, that's always closed You have hand that's always , open untill You decide to seize a soul. You have a question, that you never ask You have a picture I cant see You have a word that you save untill the last You are what I've never been You look ahead, but you do not see You have been known to weave the lie Your all around, but you, are not, with me. I'm not with you, you'll hear me cry. You've been known to judge with bigotry You Leave no footprints in the snow You have faith, but you do not believe You are what I do not know. And I'm aware, you do not hide your face And I'm aware you wear a smile Its like soemone like you, to never know his place And your suprised, it's in my eye You have stood where i once looked for friends You have whispered in my night You have borrowed something, I did not want to lend You are a shadow, In my light. You are a consequence, a pendulum Your Bloody weights upon the scales You are innocent, or nothing you have done You are blood beneath my nails. And I'm aware, you do not hide your face And I'm aware you wear a smile Its like soemone like you, to never know his place And your suprised, its in my eye
