about

Ryan, my across the hall neighbour, walks in to my studio one day and starts talking into the mic, not realising I was recording. The first part of this recording ended up in the outro of ‘Fool For Your Love’, from my first EP. It landed perfectly in that spot. Ryan continued talking, as if hosting a fictional radio show, when an imaginary Harriet Tubman decided to join us. I genuinely had no idea who Harriet Tubman was, asking ‘Who’s Harry Tubman?’ - to which Ryan replied ‘Underground Railroad Queen’.

So that became the song’s hook, and an hour later we were in our pyjamas sitting on the living room floor, building the song on my laptop.

lyrics

Harriet Tubman here with us today
If you’re just now joining us
She was just about to tell us her
Who was?
Harriet Tubman

Keep doing your thing
You’re fuckin crushing it
Oop are we live?
I’m so sorry
Is this thing on?

Harriet Tubman here with us today
If you’re just now joining us,
Who was?
Harriet Tubman
She was just about to tell us her um
Harry Tubman
Who’s Harry Tubman?
Underground railroad queen
