You're a Mountain (Quarantine Demo 2020)

You're a Mountain (Quarantine Demo 2020)

Steven Jackson

Lots of us struggled with depression, anxiety and just how f*&%ing hard life can be BEFORE this quarantine. I hope you all have someone to stand with––face into the wind. I have 4 of them under one roof, and they reluctantly agreed to sing the closing chorus on this one. Hope it sounds like hope to you. Please remember: If you need to crumble, do not think that makes you weak. You’re a mountain, after all.

NOTE: That's me with the breathing tube. But it ain't a scary one - it's a poor man's accordion
