The Long and Short of It – Upside Down

Upside Down is a song which was pitched to The Long and Short of It in 2013 whilst on a trip to Nashville. The rocky country song appealed to Dave & Patsy and they set about recording the song.

Here we are 10 years later, and the bold song is ready for release. A story of a young woman escaping her country town to spread her wings and she is ready!
