A Lifetime Ago // Project 365 // Day 37

I have finally got around to continuing my youtube series Time of the Month 2018,  June got uploaded this morning and its been so weird, my life kinda fell apart in July last year, and in the midst of that and trying to pick myself back up again I stopped being interested in reflecting on what was.

But decided I wanted to finish this project anyway. Even though it truly feels like a lifetime ago.

June was a great month, I ventured off to Prague to see out 22 and welcome in 23, there is so much to do and see there and I'm very glad for my city break there.

I had a professional photography job and celebrated my friends graduation approximately 2354 times.

There was very random nights chucked in and summer felt very much in swing and it was grand.

To top it off we went to see Tyler Hilton and Kate Voegele after having cocktails outside on what was the hottest day in Scotland last year.

Check it out!

#MusicMonday: Overtime - Tyler Hilton

If you have been a long time lurker of this blog then you will know that I am a massive Tyler Hilton fan. I have seen him live numerous times and he is just an amazing performer.  I thoroughly recommend you listen to anything in his catalogue of music.

His most recent release "Overtime" written alongside fellow One Tree Hill alumni and regular touring partner Kate Voegele who also lends her vocals to the track, is this weeks choice for Music Monday,  there voices blend together in seamless harmonies to really add to this track.

Tyler Hilton is a master of the love song and even better at a heartbreak one.  He writes amazing lyrics that you can really relate to and Overtime is a great example of that.

Hopefully this is just the beginning of more new music to be heading our way as his last full length album was released in 2014. He continues to tour heavily so check out his website to check if he will be playing near you anytime soon as he is one act you should not miss with an amazing live energy.

#MusicMonday: The Long Ride Home - Patty Griffin

This song is being chosen out of the fact I simple can't get out of my head, if I'm not humming it, I'm actually singing it out, even if its just a mumbly sing. This song is all thats in my head and it wants out.

I'm not even a little mad about how much I find myself singing to it, It's an actual masterpiece, a classic. A song that will truly stand the test of time. It will always be good.

Patty Griffin's The Long Ride Home though deals with a sad subject, its oddly uplifting and entirely satisfying. Like your ears need to hear it.

And though I might wear it to death. I do truly love it.

So go and enjoy... on the long ride home.



One of my favourite covers of the song, by some of my fave artists who have been previously featured on #MusicMonday

#MusicMonday : Tyler Hilton + Kate Voegele - Live in London [Album]

In honour of Tyler Hilton and Kate Voegele venturing on a Europe tour and playing in London last night, Music Monday is there live in London album.

Unfortunately plans to venture down to London to watch the show fell through, so instead I listened to this. Recorded last time they were there on a tour which I managed to see on there Glasgow Date.

There's something about music that is so much better live.  I've seen Tyler Hilton a few times and previously had is live in Atlanta album, and honestly Tyler Hilton was made to perform his voice is just so much better, more raw live.  This was my first time seeing Kate Voegele but she also is incredible live. There a duo not to miss so if there heading to a city near you I would recommend that you make the effort to see them.

Tyler is CD1: it contains music from all of his albums, including fan faves like Missing You and Loaded Gun. And two songs in which he duets with Kate Voegele; Long Ride Home, and Where the Stars go Blue which he originally dusted with Bethany Joy Lenz

Kate is CD2 : Kate's side also features music from all of her albums and brand new EP. As well as Hallelujah which she covered on OTH. Other fan faves included on the CD are Only Fooling Myself and No Good. Tyler Hilton joins her on Caught up in You which is a great track of her wildcard EP.

A great album so go forth and have a listen.

Tyler Hilton + Kate Voegele | Glasgow Garage | Review

Tyler Hilton and Kate Voegele are currently touring the UK and I was lucky enough to see them at there sold out Glasgow show.

Even though One Tree Hill ended in 2012 the fans still show how much music was an integral part of the show. Still following artists that the show had introduced us to. Kate Voegele and Tyler Hilton played on this playing fan favourites from the show and even closing the concert with Where the stars go blue, Kate Voegele taking the female part sang by Bethany Joy Lenz on the show.

After the opening act. Kate Voegele came on stage. With a high energy performance singing songs that fans knew from the show and a some new material from her EP The Wild Card. The audience truly enthralled in the music she was playing. This was Kate's first show in Scotland and with the reaction from the audience it differently shouldn't be her last.

Then Tyler Hilton took the stage, this marks his fourth time in Scotland. And his first tour since the release of fan funded album Indian Summer. Meaning the crowd heard old favourites as well as some material off the brilliant new album. But Tyler has been truly busy starting in new Amazon Prime show Extant with Halle Berry meant he only has a few weeks off at a time to try and tour.

They then took the stage together for two songs. A duet from Kate Voegele's EP. And the much Loved Where the Stars go Blue that Tyler sang on the show with Bethany Joy Lenz it was a huge join in moment for the crowd who sang along to every word.

Tyler and Kate have already got plans to take the tour to Canada, and wish to take it to other countries. A  great experience for any One Tree Hill Fans. Or just check out there music and see what amazing artists they are and go and see them live where they truly shine.
