about
Another song for the moment in which we find ourselves.
Of course there are much worse things than to spend a few weeks on lockdown but the strange feeling of being separated from those you love by a sense of duty to the greater good is a kind of noble sadness unique to these times.
I wrote and recorded this on the same day. The guitar and vocal went down live but I felt it needed some additional atmosphere so I sent the song to my dear friend JP Ruggieri on lockdown in Nashville, who added some lush pedal steel.
It seemed fitting to collaborate with absent friends.
lyrics
Baby there’s trouble that we cannot see
Don’t know what’s gonna happen to you or to me
Well it’s not the answer, It’s only a start
We’ll all stand together six feet apart
I’m gonna to miss you my brother, Lord only knows when
We’ll be down at the bottle shop drinking again
Love to the family with all of my heart
I’ll be right beside you, six feet apart
And maybe September, well there’ll be a bright, sunny day
‘Til then I’ll be keeping away
Oh yeah
I’m sorry my darling but you can’t go to school
Or play with your cousins or go to the pool
I know just how cruel and unfair it all seems
But it’s hard to explain just what sacrifice means
Oh Maria, it just ain’t any good
I can’t come and see you like I promised I would
All this saving your life, well it’s breaking your heart
But you’ll always be with me six feet apart
The renditions of these songs are so beautiful and raw. While I love the originals, these stripped down versions show so much feeling from Laura and it just pierces your soul. Love love love. Thanks! supashoppa
"...an album that looks as much to this side of The Pond as the UK, She Makes War's debut album is a dark melange of 90s Riot Grrrl meets indie-pop meets disquieting ballads, all the time not missing a beat..."

Discovered She makes war from the Songwriter's suite podcast. Been listening for weeks daily on Spotify at work, so had to buy th cd.
Beautifully sung, catchy and melodic. At the moment, this is looking like my favourite album of 2016 Christopher Rollason
