I joined a band back in January playing bass guitar. A slow sad country band called ‘Forest Bed’.

We were supposed to play our first gig on Wednesday the 15th April. 🙁

Instead, Paul and Becca Freeman recored a “Stripped back lockdown performance from the living room”. It’s one of my favourite songs the band has written. I hope you like it too.
