Olympics Song – Listen Here

So today is the opening of the Olympics. Hoorah! The nation is in a frenzy. Apparently.

All the hype aside, there’ll be some great sporting stories waiting to unfold. Enjoy it.

There’s a funny thing that happens at the Olympics though.

Greedy Fingers – New Song For The N30 Strikes

Greedy Fingers – Alun Parry by alunparry

Bolton UNISON commissioned me to write a song supporting the strikes about to take place on November 30th.

So here it is. Enjoy! It’s called Greedy Fingers.

Song: Don’t Put Me Name On The Board

This will be new to you, but I wrote this song a few years ago, especially for the children at Whitefield School in Liverpool.

New Song: We Are Not Afraid

I sung this song for the first time during my headline set at Hove Folk Club on Friday.

But I wrote it on the way to the Sophie Lancaster gig at the end of last month.
