Debut album 'Love Songs and Laments' out on all streaming platforms and limited edition cassette now. Just the Crust describe it as follows:  ' his new album only expands on his great collection of songs - you can really hear the progression and evolution of his songwriting, with songs like the opener "Homeland" which is a calm and mellow tune about his childhood town, and then the eerie and haunting sound of "Pantomime" with violins and more of a full band sound behind Phil and his ukulele. it's a real great listen and well worth checking out!'
