Things Get Weird With Tomás Ford

I’ve had a great time on this second patch of four days at Paper Mountain. I had a bunch of Life Stuff and a weeks’ holiday down south in between last time I was here and now, which meant that although I’d planned to do a bunch more work on the songs that made upContinue reading “Things Get Weird With Tomás Ford”
