about

I was so apalled about the story behind this trajedy that I had to do something about it - all I could do was create this tune (an instrumental).
I felt no words could describe the waste of this womans' life. She lost her life due to our (UK) governments', in-humane, morally wrong 'Under Occupancy' tax. In most cases, the 'spare room' is small and is inherited via personal/social changes. Steph', like thousands (possibly millions) of very low-income people, could not find enough money to eat, pay the bills and meet the so called 'spare bedroom tax'. In her last note, Steph' laid the blame of her suicide directly on the governments' doorstep (No 10).

about

JJ's Blues Project Birmingham, UK

JJ’s Blues Project: is an on-going, solo, blues-based concept that began on tape in 1998 (digital 2001). This is a sample of my work; I play all instruments and sing my own lyrics (I also created the artwork). All albums are recorded, mixed & mastered by me; away from my job as guitar, bass, keyboard, drum tutor and producer etc. Thanks for listening/ downloading. JJ. ... more
