Two singles out with The Q-Days

Two singles out with The Q-Days: Underboard and Close Your Eyes. Original material, which is a different kind of work from the covers and function side of the diary.

Writing a part rather than learning one

With a cover there is a right answer and the job is finding it. With an original there is no right answer, and the bass line is one of the things that decides what the song turns out to be. Knowing when to write something that leads and when to get out of the way is most of it.

Underboard runs to just over six minutes, which gives the arrangement somewhere to go.
