Hello and welcome back!  This is the final day of the tour, thank you for sticking with it, it’s been emotional.

I hope you’ve enjoyed it and the experience has been a bit more exciting than most album/EP launches that you’ve experienced.  Please do send me an email if you’ve enjoyed the tour, I would love to hear from you: luke@lawlessluke.com.  As I’m sure you can imagine pulling together this experience for you and creating the EP takes a lot of time and effort, so any words of encouragement are greatly appreciated.

The last song for today is called ‘Black Swan’ and I wrote this one whilst travelling down the west coast on the South Island in New Zealand near Hokitika.  The lyrics were actually inspired by a number of Black Swans that we kept seeing near various lakes.  We don’t have Black Swans here in Blighty so I did a double take!  At the time of writing this song I was going through quite a big personal transisiton.  I saw the arrival of the Black Swans as a metaphor for dealing with personal change and self doubt.   

When you listen you’ll no doubt notice that I inhaled some helium prior to recording and sang like a woman…there’s a good reason for that; sometimes when writing a song you’ve got to get out of your own way, and I could really hear a female vocal singing the melody.  So I asked my wife Laura to sing the lyrics and I think it worked out perfectly.  You may see some original collaborations from us in the future.     

That draws things to a close for now although, I will be in touch tomorrow with a very special offer just for you…so keep those eyes peeled!
