It fills me with great excitement to present to you all my debut album entitled "Horse Food Budget 1984". Recorded in Stoneview Studios with contributions from various parts of Cork, Ireland and further afield, this album for me is a journey that if you listen from start to finish takes you through the feelings and emotions I have attempted to capture during a time when I was trying to finish my PhD. For me it is about developing resilience, growing as a person and trying to overcome perfectionism and embracing oneself, amongst other things.
I would like to thank all those who contributed to it, and I really hope you enjoy it.
Much Love,
Adam (aka M'ADAM)
