Welcome to the music!
If you’ve read my first novel Pushing Leaves Towards the Sun, or even the first 3 Chapters, then you’ve seen that my protagonist Lindy is a song writer and her lyrics are integral to her emotional recovery after the death of her boyfriend Oso. This is where the music from the novel is layed out as three music albums as she would have produced them within the story. The songwriting continues with Scuba’s contribution and then Lindy’s 4th music album Street Justice (as Lindy continues to develop her career in my second novel). Here you can read the lyrics as well as listen to the songs as they are produced by real music artists (just click on each song title).
