Release Date: 20/03/2014
Steve Follows, Son of ‘May Un Mar’ lady cartoons by Dave Follows from Stafford, Staffordshire has released his first UK release song under the name Steve Follows Band, called 'Gently' for National release.
The son of late cartoonist Dave Follows who created the infamous ’May Un Mar Lady’ cartoons that appeared in the Evening Sentinel for nearly 30 years and other cartoon in the Sunday Times and Staffordshire Newsletter said.
“A lot of time, effort and expertise have gone into producing this single and I hope to reach a National UK audience”
The song ‘Gently’ is about a transition to the afterlife with the help and ghosts and spirits in a definite gentle and amazing way.
“ It has been a long term ambition to own and to release my very first music single and has taken a lot of time and effort to put it all together.
“My father Dave Follows was extremely inspirational for the track and my music. He used to be in a band in the 70’s called The Nelson Brothers and the lyrics were so nice to write with him in mind” but a lot more technology to hand.
Steve added “When I came back from Afghanistan in 2011 I had saved enough money to make my very well loved home recording studio in the spare room. Since then I have never looked back and I am writing more tunes to be released in the future”
“It was a tough owd ride learning all the new technology but was worth it when it sounded great” I recommend it to all that want’s to try something new.
A music video in its entirety of the song is available to view and can be seen on You Tube and Vimeo under the name ‘Gently’ by Steve Follows Band.
Steve who works in Stoke at the ‘Donna Louise Hospice Trust’ (Your Shop) was thrilled it is now available on I tunes and Amazon music for immediate download from the 20th March 2014 and was looking forward to releasing his second record in September 2014 called ‘Juno’.
