Morning Sessions: David Ford
'I Sincerely Apologise For All The Trouble I've Caused' is an album of words and melodies that whisper and shout defiantly at the constant disappointments that litter our lives. Very much an advocator of the DIY approach, Ford recorded the album in the cellar of his Lewes flat.
'I Sincerely Apologise For All The Trouble I've Caused' is an album of words and melodies that whisper and shout defiantly at the constant disappointments that litter our lives. Very much an advocator of the DIY approach, Ford recorded the album in the cellar of his Lewes flat. The album's tone is set by key songs such as the epic 'I Don't Care What You Call Me' – 'a bastards lament' and David's memo to himself, the anthemic 'Cheer Up (You Miserable Fuck)', which features his local football team on backing vocal duties.
A natural in front of an audience Ford isn't afraid to take risks with the occasional inspired cover version. These covers have become a regular feature at his annual charity event Milk & Cookies. 2006's Milk & Cookies featured Ford versions of Madonna's Like A Prayer and Outkasts 'Roses' plus a riotous cover of Abba's 'Dancing Queen' with guest artist Fran Healy from Travis.
