Oh November, the best month to wear big grey sweaters & feel a little melancholy as you kick your way through the dead leaves & breath in the chill.
I love it.
I am a generally happy person , but a big streak of November cuts through my heart & soul, like metal ore of some kind.

Last November I was feeling extra alone, & melancholy, on the road I began to listen to Nick Drake’s Family Tree (which is excellent!) & was so moved I wrote the lyrics to a song, even while driving.

This song I called November Man, & I have released it as a free download on Soundcloud here:

Soundcloud allows 100 downloads, so please do feel free!

In addition, I am offering a one of a kind, absolutely exclusive demo of November Man, which was recorded in one take & cut directly to vinyl at Leesta Vall Studios in Brooklyn.
Made of clear vinyl, this 7 inch record is the only physical copy , and no digital copy exists.
The ultimate prize for your Allysen Callery collection.

Allysen
