Our cover of “Half A Person” by The Smiths, off of Louder than Bombs (1987.)

We really love this song.  Whether or not we have interpreted the lyrics in the way that the writer intended, this song hits close to home.  Instead of moving to London, we moved to Brooklyn and at 21 I still felt like a clumsy sixteen-year-old.  Story of my life- probably always will.

Our version is jazzier, Brad’s piano solo is pretty awesome.  I tried not to do too much with the vocals and just let the extremely well-written music speak for itself.

Erika Lloyd, vocals
Brad Whiteley, piano
Cameron Mizell, guitar
