ABC by Elliot Reed / Chris O'Connor

Elliot Reed is a six year old from Southend (UK) This is his first release which he wrote, recorded and mixed entirely unaided once he had learnt to use the technology.

He says:
I enjoyed writing the songs
Some of them were inspired by Ninjago and having chickenpox and missing school because of COVID 19. Ghost House was inspired by Mario.
I played harmonica, drums, theremin, orba, keyboard, vocals and field recordings.
I drew the picture when I had COVID.

He also edited this video for 'Ghost House' himself
