Around 2019 I was gigging a full 6-piece electric band. Lockdown put an end to that. During lockdown, my writing naturally became more contemplative. This song is one of those. There’s some deeply personal stuff buried in that lyric. Recording it had to be done differently too. All the parts had to be recorded remotely and I had production meetings with Jen and the other performers in Zoom. (inc Richard Naisbett & Steve Dolder) The final piece was my added bass gtr at Harbourmaster Productions with me and Martin Francis Trollope wearing masks as the lockdown was tentatively lifted. It became the title track from my album DISTANT DESTINATION https://steve-thompson.org.uk/product/distant-destination/
