Here's one to read the kids at night. "The field of life is time devouring Ever ploughed, yet seldom flowering Through toil in rock and soil I've learned The reward is an insult to that which was earned." The songs of 2021 are going to be a cheerful bunch.

Join me tonight over on the @EssentiallyPop Instagram page for a live show at 8pm.

This feels like a lifetime ago. I genuinely have never been more eager and excited to get back into studio and dust off the rest of this album. This is taking the term, "difficult second album" to a whole new level. We will get there my friends.

The Trip To Greece! You can keep your "Game of Thrones". I'll take these gents any day. @RobBrydon
