    Since the 90's F.G. fell in love with experimental and lo-fi music after he discovered the tapes of Daniel Johnston and the first releases of Beck.
    Under his first alter ego The Ordinary Seaman, he spent more than a decade tape-recording his primitive sound experiments and lyrics about life and youthful love.

    Years later he decided to change his name to Philippe Guislain and started to write in Dutch, his native language, in order to fully express his poetic side.

    On his debut release, 'The Only River' from 2020, he re-examines his songwriter career through the eyes of a 40 year old man. Holding on to their primordial character, he rearranged his old songs in a more mature manner.

    The new album 'Ochtenddirectie' is a selection of Philip Guislain’s dutch poems that abound in love and humor, all taken with a pinch of salt.

lyrics

Lindy Jones
zag ik soms
ze was altijd
overal alleen
voor een meisje
is dat vreemd
ze was altijd
overal overal overal alleen

Maar ze kwam waarschijnlijk uit Amerika
Ze schreef hier haar thesis over Afrika
Ze had familie in Corsica
Ze las veel boeken over Antarctica

Lindy Jones
zag ik soms
ze was altijd
overal alleen
voor een meisje
is dat vreemd
ze was altijd
overal overal overal alleen

Ze plande een reis naar Australië
en wou dan verder naar Tasmanië
Ze was gek op Argentinië
Waarom zit ze hier dan in België

Lindy Jones
zag ik soms
ze was altijd
overal alleen
voor een meisje
is dat vreemd
ze was altijd
overal overal overal overal alleen
