This is still FREE / PWYW for the next 7 days. Bandcamp Day is over for now but their platform fees are perfectly fair, so if you'd like to nip along and get your copy it's a great time to do so.

It’s Bandcamp Day, when the platform I’ve been releasing music on since 2009 celebrates their artists by taking 0% of sales. They are good eggs!

I’m celebrating with a set of live recordings made on my December tour.

Get your copy FREE / PWYW

15 years ago I covered my fave Christmas song and made a video starring my beloved lil dog Mister Benji.

He's been gone for almost exactly 4 years now so I especially enjoy watching us dance together in the snow every year :)

The fictional prequel to the biggest Christmas banger of all time, a festive tale of love, understanding and the particular resignation that, when you break a songwriter’s heart, they’re probably going to write about it.

It's "Our Last Christmas": penfriend.rocks/our-last-chr...

Who's up for an indie rock Christmas tune that's a fictional prequel to one of the biggest Christmas hits ever?
"You made a fuss of cooking
But something won't compute
You seem to like my brother
And I think your sister's cute

It's our last Christmas
Our last Christmas"

Hello you! I have a free album for you!

Before heading out on my first support tour in SIX YEARS I warmed up my set with a livestream from my attic. 8 songs + silliness.

Pay what you can if free isn’t right for you ❤️

I’ve seen some idiotic pricing of gig tickets over the years but just read that the (pre fees) price for Robbie Williams at Barrowlands was £137!!! 😂😂😂😂

This version of "Disco Loadout" is available for 7 more days:

It's ironic that this happened during a very real, very live music performance, but the internet can be a strange and wonderful place and I always enjoy unearthing an unusual title for my live albums.

And so I present "Deepfake Detected" penfriendrocks.bandcamp.com/album/deepfa...
