about

The new album, ’Doubt’ began one year prior to James’ son’s introduction to the world. However, things were far from straight forward, and this experience significantly impacted on the direction of the material. As things improved, although little Thomas Summerfield’s constant demand for affection/attention ultimately slowed the writing and recording process down, thinking time increased. “Much of the instrumentation for the album was written and recorded in my head whilst waiting for Thomas to eat, sleep and wriggle around. This made studio time very straight forward” James Summerfield.

James Summerfield

lyrics

teary son
alpha males
no more ‘and finale’s’
just highlight the failures of ourselves

queue pushers
deadline strain
beurocrats
And the pouring rain

Lazy people telling you ‘you should chill out’- that's what it's all about.

Out of concern, out of your hands, out of control, out of the zone.

People views; black or white
Can’t see that more than one way’s right,
Or maybe things just can’t be solved,
No one’s perfect so we’re told

Faith it gives us little faith in finding who we really are.

Out of concern, out of your hands, out of control, out of the zone.

Out of hand
Out of head
Heart in hands
Heart in mouth

Mid 8
We’d like to have a little influence on some things we can’t control,
So we battle with our demons, invite into our souls,
So instead, let them go, don’t allow them in the zone,
Sometimes the best way is to shut down, let them go.

Out of concern, out of your hands, out of control, out of the zone

No gratitude
For our extra mile
Take not give
Or even smile

We bother ‘cos we care about the others and image of ourselves.
