about

I wrote this tune in 1993, for my first band, the Grommets ( Aaron Curtis, Julien Wilson, Sean ' Nocturnal' Nihill, Matt Earl ' The Pearl', with occasional guests Ralph Whiteoak, Glenn Mortimer, Simon Kent, Adam Starr, Ben Gillespie, Nathan Cross et al.). We used to play at the Limerick Arms when we were students at VCA. That was a great band, and I used this tune at VCA in an ensemble, and there it stayed, crumbling gracefully in the corner of my memory somewhere. Written about a girl who had left the country ( and me in the process) and given me my first taste of absolute desolation.
'Rowdy' Robbie Burke came and played his heart out, bringing the Shinboner spirit, his passionate cries through the horn driving the band.

Apogee is Frock's 7th album.
