My brand new single ‘You’ve Got This’ is out now…it’s a feel-good song for anyone who feels like they can’t do it.

This is the first song off my upcoming album and brings together punchy-guitars and ska-punk feels!

Steam it now on Spotify.

Come along to the Queen Street Brew House in Colchester for an evening of acoustic music with Fraser Morgan, Rosalind Harniess and Backroom Stereo.

For the last 7 year’s Backroom Stereo has always released a Christmas song and up until a couple of weeks ago I thought this was going to be the year I missed…then I wrote a pop-punk Christmas song in about 5 minutes so here is Christmas single number 8 ‘I Hate The Snow’…it’s a minute and a half of pop-punk Christmas fun and a hint at some of the new music I’ve been writing this year!

It’s now streaming everywhere you stream music! Enjoy!

Long term fans will know that for the last 6 (maybe!) years I’ve written and released a Christmas song and this year is no different.

What happened on Christmas Eve when one of the Elves had a new persistent cough and Santa lost his sense of taste? Find out in my new pop-punk holiday classic ‘Santa Must Self Isolate’…a Christmas song for 2020.

About a year ago I rewatched the live action Scooby Doo movie and was convinced I’d heard a pop-punk cover of the AllStars song ‘Things That Go Bump in the Night’ that appears in the movie yet I couldn’t find it anywhere!

So I recorded it!

Out now…my pop-punk take of ‘Things That Go Bump in the Night’ – Stream it here

Way back at the end of last year I rewatched the Scooby Doo movie and heard ‘Things That Go Bump In The Night’ for the first time in forever…I was convinced I’d heard a pop-punk cover but couldn’t find it…so I made it!

‘Things That Go Bump in the Night’ drops Friday 23rd October!

My brand new single ‘Circus’ is out to stream everywhere now. Check it out here. There’s also some new Circus merch in the store
