Episode 44

Cover me up

W/C 14th November 2022

Funnily enough the episode title is not a reference to trying to keep warm , without putting the heating on.

It's actually a little nod to the gig I went to last night. I don't know a lot about Jason Isbell and I am only just discovering his catalogue, so I went as a bit of a blank page with no real expectations.

First up he is terrific, as are his band, and the show was outstanding. There was a particular moment in this song though that resonated with me a a bit of a newbie. A cheer went up from the crowd about half way through, when the song referenced the moment he finally became sober - a theme he talks openly about.

It was a simple, but powerful point of connection in what is a beautiful song.

Stay safe.

Cover Me Up -Jason Isbell (Live)

Therapy For Me (or TFM as I now refer to it) is a bit of an audio curiosity. It started out as a mechanism for me to clear my head, with the hope that by saying stuff out loud it would act as a little bit of self-help. It's remains loose in style, fluid in terms of content and raw - it's a one take, press record and see what happens, affair.

If you want to keep in touch with TFM and the other stuff I do then please follow me on Facebook, Insta, Twitter or Patreon. Thanks for getting this far.

I have been tinkering with audio since my mid-teens, recording songs & producing content for friends.

Post university I embraced the world of retail, firstly in supermarkets and later in & around the music instrument industry.

After 20 years or so, I took a sideways step into podcasting and began a venture called ashortstories, which helps in the development & production of podcasts for anyone that has a story to tell.
