Joe Symes (vocals, guitar, harmonica)
Colin White (drums, percussion)
Dave Skilling (keyboards, backing vocals)

Video: "Matilda" - Martin and James

Hey guys,

this isn't a planned post but I just decided to write it.

Martin and James, the acoustic duo from Scotland, just released their music video for their current single "Matilda".

The video was shot in Scotland and to be honest it seems to be way too sunny.

They always tell us the most horrible stories about the Scottish, rainy weather. Haha.

I have always liked their music videos.

They are simple, but not in a boring way.

 There are effects but not too many. 

The video is focused on the song - not the other way round.

In his songs he raps about own experiences, things that happened to him and things he saw happening.

Music is his way to express himself and tell people about his life so they can either relate or get a clue of what he is going through.
