Thanks Tim!
Over to you Shane…
Cheers, Ray, bud. Hi everyone, hope all is good with ye.
Lots going on this week isn’t there? Excited for the Murder Capital and RSD.
Sorry now to be spamming ye with stuff, but I put up a new bÚkl video/song on my Youtube channel and just wanted to share here with ye. Before I do though, just want to mention a trigger warning as there’s a depiction of self-harm and prescription drugs in it. It’s track 3 off my upcoming album. Hope ye enjoy. I got a fairly harsh comment on it earlier today…the nature of putting stuff out there I suppose. If ye would consider subscribing I’d appreciate it. Anyway, here it is. Oh, bonus points if ye can spot Young Adam in it:
https://youtu.be/aF-7vdThYqk?si=w9NaWhZDoTfCBqdT
