Gary Hurlstone Aka Mac & Gar Songwriters

Just my Heart and Soul (Hurlstone/Austin Nov 2024) Trying to untangle the existential experience we call ‘love’ is not easy! Artists, be they writers, poets, painters, dancers or musicians have been attempting to capture the essence of this complex, mercurial, shape shifting emotional condition since we first became aware that it even existed. Being ‘in love’ is a state that can bring us overwhelming joy but also crushing emotional pain when things go wrong, and they do sometimes. The words to ‘Just my Heart and Soul’- based upon a poem written by Amanda Austin, explore both sides of this divide. The song though is meant as a celebration, a celebration of one of the greatest journeys of our lives, one without a destination, a voyage of discovery communicated in the universal language spoken and understood by us all.
