Elliot Cox “We Are the Seasons Changing”

November 26, 2025 Michael Macy 0
Debut album ‘We Are The Seasons Changing’, is a celebratory collection of songs. It’s likely that Elliot Cox didn’t consciously write these songs as celebrations. They aren’t anthems that would fill a stadium with people singing […]
