Speak Easy bookings open today

 

Ward - Blind Dirt / Green Light released today

 

A new EP for #bandcampfriday from my new band 'Ward' featuring myself and Courtney Ward is out today. “Green Light / Blind Dirt” is a fierce double A‑side that captures two distinct but complementary bursts of energy. “Green Light” surges forward with restless momentum, guitars and vocals colliding in a breathless rush that embodies urgency and release. “Blind Dirt” the other track in the single digs into grit and chaos, its jagged edges and uncompromising tone delivering catharsis through confrontation. Together with additional mixes (Dub Mix and Spoken Word version), they form a statement of intent: raw, bold, and impossible to ignore. This EP doesn’t just showcase range - it announces a range, a vision, raw yet purposeful, and brimming with defiance.
