Stay Positive, by Joe Solo ft. Jess Silk, Rebekah Findlay & The Station Chorus from the album Punk Rock Prepared Us For This

Probably what a lot of folks are needing right now.

This song is a duet between Jess Silk and meself with a little help from the Station Chorus, but it when Rebekah Findlay joins us on fiddle that you really shift emotional gear. Absolutely stunning.

Not Alright, by Joe Solo ft. Jess Silk from the album Punk Rock Prepared Us For This

Full album available to stream NOW on BC.

This is one of my favourites.

It's a lovely bit of Jess Silk and Rebekah Findlay magic on a song about neuro-diversity and mental health.

So much more than the sum of its parts.
