Single Focus: The Rechords

Answered by: Felix Potier

Single title? Mockingbird

What's the song about? When you are tricked or cheated out of an opportunity you have worked so hard to earn.

How long did it take to write/record? The song was written over two days and recorded in two sessions.

Is this track from a forthcoming release/existing release? The track is from our first double A-side vinyl release - Seeing Things/Mockingbird. We are planning a series of these 7" records.

What was inspiring you during the song's writing and recording? My inspiration comes from personal experience, but with a more poetic twist so as not to sound too literal.

We'll like this song if we like... JD McPherson, Nick Curran, Stray Cats.

Do you play it differently live? We play the track the same way live with the same attitude as the recording.

When and where is your launch/next gigs? 27 Aug, The Gasometer Hotel, 7pm - 10pm is the launch for this first of many double A-side singles.
