about

Will: I've always perceived Gawain to be a humble man. I asked him once how he was so humble. He replied that it was because his mother used to feed him lots of apple crumble. I think it was a joke, nevertheless it was the inspiration for some of the text in this piece. As for the music, I vaguely tried to portray Gawain's jolly quirkiness with some odd time signatures and lively melodies, with a few solemn moments thrown in as well.

lyrics

G’wain, G’wain the humble
Apple ca-rumble
You won’t regret a chat with him, no
You’ll laugh, you’ll sing, he’ll make you grin
Yeah, Gawain
He is a genius to me
His music, beautiful he writes music of pure delight
G’wain Davey

about

Gawain Davey Melbourne, Australia

Music to appreciate and savour.
A slower, softer sound spectrum... quirky, thoughtful words... restless melodies on a lush bed of changing harmony...
Darkness and light mingle.
Gawain writes classical music and contemporary songs.
