    Our very first official release, this this 6 track EP came out in 2018 and is really more like a mini album.

    Songs are like little fish being released into a big ocean. Who knows where they (or any of us for that matter) will end up?
    We really hope you enjoy our first official release and sense the love that we have put into it.
    It’s dedicated to our family and friends. A special thanks to the amazing Chuck.
    Jim and Josie

    “…high in melodic quality, perfectly-matched voices and rich with storytelling…” Folk Words

    "This is a surprisingly enchanting EP” Northern Sky Magazine

    Milton Hide draw inspiration from their surroundings, from people they meet and from traditional folk songs from East Sussex and beyond - way beyond, sometimes!

    ​Who (or where) is Milton Hide?
    Husband and wife duo, Josie and Jim Tipler take their band name from an area of scrub and coppice, known for its nightingales and other wildlife, near their East Sussex home.

about

Sounds like it was written on a very cold, wet day in France - and that’s because it was. Don’t take the lyrics too literally - it’s written more as a lament after the 2016 Brexit Referendum (guess which way we voted).

lyrics

Everybody needs a place to think
Everybody floats ideas
they know will sink
Who’s will sail? Time will tell
Time to drive a man to drink

Rain is closing in from the west
Clouds are gathering and
I’m not at my best
Melancholy melodies
I’m ok, it’s just the rest

Skies are grey almost every day
It’s the perfect place to hang

Now it’s time to say goodbye my friend
The party’s finished but the hangover never ends
Torn apart. Breaks my heart
All my love to you I’ll send

Skies are grey almost every day
It’s the perfect place to hang

On the hill there stands a
broken tree
It’s the perfect place to let
my spirit free
No-one knows. Nothing grows
It’s the perfect place to hang

Skies are grey almost every day
It’s the perfect place to hang

Skies are grey almost every day
It’s the perfect place to hang
