about

Telecommunicate is a new 4 song EP based on the true story of Robin Van Helsum. Nicknamed "Forest Boy" by international media, Van Helsum was a troubled runaway who convinced the world that he lived alone in the woods for 5 years. Just as quickly as his hoax was uncovered, Robin fled the authorities again. The father of a young child, estranged from his ailing father, and working for a telecommunications company - Forest Boy's story is as nuanced and compelling as it is mystifying.

The entire proceeds of this EP (written, performed and recorded in 7 days) are destined for a new tour vehicle for Aidan Knight and company. Hence, yknow, the van.

Track Name: Telecommunicate
Robin hangs the phone up
Leaving paper in the desk
A baby in the world now
Central nervousness

Alone
I don't know who I am

Searching for a problem
To a question left unasked
Buried underneath the stones
He goes another path
See the station or the treelines
Never looking back
Track Name: In Berlin
A chance to start again
A quiet life worth living
In Berlin
But I say
How long

What can be remembered
What's worth remembering
The mind is blank
For how long

Catching feet on low hanging branches
I come scrambling, facing out on city hall

Damien please hold on for me

I have looked in all the low places
Showed up on your doorstep
Just to turn around

Love me as I am or never let me go
Never lost but never found, find a loss for words
& give up completely

A chance to start again
Another life I'm living
In Berlin
But I say
How long
