The White Horse Band - Live Blues/Rock

 31 March 2023

Hi All,  
Time for some LIVE Video Music from me… (as opposed to my original stuff)…. I got into a blues/rock band for a one off gig at the atmospheric Avebury Rings, in the UK, so here is a five minute video  “medley” of some of the songs… LIVE! 
To check it out, the link is: https://youtu.be/CMB82v1UvXs  Or just type “White Horse Tom Edwards” into Youtube.
My thanks to the rest of the band:  Pete, Bob and Enzo. Great guys.
Enjoy.

ABOUT LOVE - A collection of songs written and performed by Tom Edwards

As some of you may know, I have just completed my first Music album entitled: About Love.

This was an extended lock-down solo project, taking as my theme some of the aspects of "love" that I had  seen in my life. Strangely, rather than about "romantic" love, my first track was about my love of travel, which normally occupies about 6 months of every year but then suddenly, because of the pandemic, I could go no where, not even into town - that  became "A Prisoner in a Velvet Glove." Music video: https://youtu.be/AJLpof_soTc

Other tracks followed - a revamp of  "Our Love Is On The Right Track": a relationship that maybe wasn't working but is now. Music Video: https://youtu.be/1pqRSbEbzYg

"Beautiful": where perfection has been found, real for imagined, wherever anyone says. Music Video: https://youtu.be/CeENU21pbCw

"See The Morning Light": if you play-around, you can lose the very person you've always loved. Music Video: https://youtu.be/7cY6lUtVqNo

"Meet-Cute From A Movie Romance": my personal favourite because I love stories - here the guy, emotionally lost on the road to nowhere, meets the girl with whom it shouldn't work, but it does.

"Before I Met You": the realisation that the perfect life had not been perfect until "I met you".  "Was it Love?": when you know the answer is yes, from the moment you first meet. And then "Waiting for This Moment To Come": which we've all done, for days or weeks, years or even decades. On to "Why Don't You Pick Me": not desperation, but a plea to acknowledge that two old friends that have suffered with others,  should have been lovers all along. Then the dark side with "Cheatin' Ways" - the love you can't do without, even when you know it will hurt not only you, but others too. And the melancholy of "My Whole Life Feels Like Rain": which it  sometimes does, no matter what.

I will be posting more music videos versions and making all the music-only-tracks available, thru this blog, in the near future.

Hope you get a change to listen.

Thanks 

Tom

Hi Everyone, 

Time for another Music Video, this time, "See The Morning light", the last track on my new solo album "About Love".

This is a guitar-orientated "60' sBrit Blues style" Blues... every album  should have at least one :-)

It follows the always-true theme of " you never know what you have until you lose it".

Please check it out by clicking on the picture or on the Youtube link:

Beautiful... a new song and Music Video from my new solo album

Hi Everyone,

It's way past time for a new song and music video from me. 

So here is BEAUTIFUL: the video for the opening track to my new solo music album: "About Love".... and relationships as I have seen or experienced them - for good and bad - at various times in my life. This first song is about the pull of infatuation you can feel for someone when you first meet:  a power that grips you, irrespective of what others might say. You can only see  that she is perfect for you: and whose to say she isn't?

Here’s the Youtube link: you may have to cut ’n’ paste: https://youtu.be/CeENU21pbCw or click on the photo

Thanks

Tom

Travelin' Man: a new Song & Music-Video from me

There's also a bit of my tongue-in-cheek, philosophy for living in the lyrics - life should be about the journey, never about arriving. 

It's also on YouTube link: https://youtu.be/7Ju755FS9o

Hope you enjoy.

Our Love is On the Right Track- Song & Video from my new "solo" project

Our Love is on the Right Track

A great sentiment for Christmas, but also a romantic song & video for you all, the first from my new  "solo" music and video project.

Hope you enjoy it. And please pass it around... 

I originally wrote the song to just a hand-clappping accompaniment - like one of those old plantation work chants from the old American South - but it worked it's way up through a rock and roll version into the bluesy feel it now has.

I always felt it was a song about a journey, so trains seemed ot be the right idea for the  video. The video backdrop is the train from downtown Bangkok to the airport and the tram scenes are in Turin, Italy. The keyboard, bass and guitar hands are mine, shot in Perth in Oz.

You can see the Video on my website: www.tomedwardsauthor.com

Cheers...     Tom

Christmas in Loa: Luang Prabang & Vientiane

It’s always  around 40 centigrade for Christmas here in Oz, and never seems quite the place to celebrate Christmas especially with fake snow around the windows, so I thought I’d treat you to another odd place to have Christmas – Lao. 
Not only is it a jungle out there, but it’s also a strongly Buddhist country. Still, they obviously don’t mind popping up the Christmas Trees along the Mekong River in Luang Prabang or the odd reindeer and Santa Claus in downtown Vientiane. 

I particularly like the Lao version of what goes on top of the Christmas tree – clearly Christmas is all I about giving, so mine’s a pint of that, thanks. 

Greetings to all. 

Tom

London: The Weekend Off - a new travel thriller just published

Yes, it's official, I've just published my second novel:

a Rom-Com Travel Adventure Thriller - 

and I've already got a review for it...

 Tom Edwards has a new book out on Amazon. He describes it as a 'rom-com thriller'. It's that rare entity - a story told in the present tense that actually works. Funny and scary by turns, it tracks the path of a tour guide who gets mixed up in stuff that's none of his business - in between bedding beautiful women and falling over an array of fascinating characters - all in a rare weekend off. Check it out at the link below.

Satima Flavell

Leading hedonistic tours around Europe, Nick is used to the surreal. But he isn’t expecting it to follow him home to London - and that’s before he wakes up with his boss’ girlfriend. Then there is the missing £2million, the Turkish mafia, the drug squad, being dumped by his girlfriend and having his sister kidnapped. Will true love triumph by Monday? Or will his reluctant housebreaking and losing his trousers, all prove to be in vain? And what’s with the footballer?
