about

Limited tapes available through Become Eternal. becomeeternal.bandcamp.com/album/everything-happens-for-some-reason


'Call' started from accidentally looping half a bar of another song of mine, 'Grey Warbler'. It turned into something I felt was a good album opener - and kinda nicely, 'Grey Warbler' closed my last album, Grounded.

'Heaven Knows' might sound a bit familiar if you heard the song 'The Estuary' I did with Anthonie Tonnon. anthonietonnon.bandcamp.com/album/two-free-hands

'Ottomans' was an early idea from when I was writing music for a behind the scenes video for clothing company Kowtow. I forget why I saved it as 'Ottomans and 'Footstools' but at some point I carved off the second half of the track and decided to let the two pieces stand alone.

'Should Be Home Now' stemmed from 'Pageant', a recent collaboration with animated film maker Ned Wenlock / Oneedo. vimeo.com/254808727

As for the album title, I was trying to flip the cliche "everything happens for a reason" so it says almost the opposite: events keep on coming; who knows why?
