Songs inspired by podcast interviews #1-12. https://anchor.fm/podsongs

Jack’s new album Deeper is a series of self-help songs that will help people get perspective on the current Corona crisis. The songs are inspired by his own life experiences and mental struggles. Jack previously lived a toyboy lifestyle in Amsterdam, working as a copywriter, musician, and fashion designer.

However, this led to burnout and breakdown, so Jack set off on a bicycle tour through 45 countries as a nomadic troubadour, playing over 700 house concerts in return for a place to sleep.

Jack grew through all these experiences, countless self-help books and podcasts, and Vipassana meditation. As a documentary songwriter and modern-day troubadour, he writes non-fictional songs with a goal of instructing, educating, or maintaining a historical record.

This album was recorded in the Cilento in the heart of Southern Italy. I'm very grateful to everyone who played on the album. Piera Lombardi (Vocals/percussion), Francesco Citera (Accordion), Denis Citera (Drums), Angelo Loia (Guitar). It was recorded in the wonderful studio of Tonino Valletta with all it's shiny valves. The songs are inspired by life in Italy and my lovely ball and chain, Maria Rosaria della Pepa. Long may she keep me here. (PS - Thanks to Francis Cassidy for the album cover www.thestrayphotographer.com)

Covers of four classic Hank Williams songs. Francesco Citera on accordion. Antonio Fiorillo on double bass. And Piera Lombardi provides percussion. It was recorded and produced by Tonino Valletta at TVA studio, in Ascea, Italy. Tonino put so much time working on the sound of the recordings and all the quality you hear is down to him.
