‘Only Young’ is out now. I wrote this song with my twin brother @iamdanduke and we recorded it ourselves with our friend Danny. Please retweet this as far and wide as you can.

@TheRealBrendan6 @jerrysaltz And while I agree that appreciating art as part of a broader landscape can be interesting, things like cultural and historical perspective can be provided without making a value judgement.
@TheRealBrendan6 @jerrysaltz I’m not sure I agree with you there (on either point really). I disagree with the idea that anyone should be told how to consume or enjoy art – in many cases even the artist themselves wouldn’t be so prescriptive, so what qualifies a critic to be so?
@TheRealBrendan6 @jerrysaltz No doubt we all need criticism to improve, but there’s a difference between critique from a peer or an audience that helps you better your art and someone being paid to criticise art for a living. The latter just feels surplus to requirements.
@jerrysaltz Put it this way. Critics could disappear from the earth tomorrow and we wouldn’t even notice. But a world without art? That’s a world few of us would want to live in.
Quick little writing session ✍🏼 🎶 🎸
To hell with your excuses cos it’s done now,
The letters were written in blood,
You were brushing it under the rug,
We were just kids in love,
But I was the one who got hurt.

I had forgotten just how breathtakingly good this album is. Can't underestimate the influence this record and all of Noah And The Whale's records had on my own writing at the time. https://t.co/7Ty6hXAvAD
