  • Streaming + Download

    Includes unlimited streaming via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

    Borrow Sorrow started out as a slow waltz. Influenced by some of the demos Elliott Smith did with Jon Brion, I got Darragh Nolan to play keys live with me blind and we recorded it just before I took a 3am bus to the aiport from his Astakalap Studios in Gorey, Co. Wexford. The single version is the one from my new album 'Now Is All'. I've also included Instrumentals of both and a home recording of the day I first tried to speed it up. That demo was originally called 'Borrow Strokes' for obvious reasons. It's presented here as a bonus track (Track 5). I hope you get some enjoyment out of the process. It took 5 years to finish.

about

Borrow Sorrow started out as a slow waltz. Influenced by some of the demos Elliott Smith did with Jon Brion back in 2000. I got Darragh Nolan to play keys live with me blind and we recorded it just before I took a 3am bus to the aiport from his Astakalapa Studios in Gorey, Co. Wexford in 2018. The single version is the one from my new album 'Now Is All'. I've also included Instrumentals of both and a home recording of the day I first tried to speed it up. That demo was originally called 'Borrow Strokes' for obvious reasons. It's presented here as a bonus track (Track 5). I hope you get some enjoyment out of the process. It took 5 years to finish.
