Interview with Gareth Koch - The Strange Brew (UK) - Read - "...The idea was to write a soulful ballad filled with ocean and journey references. Musically it harks back to a tuneful and almost Italian style of writing. The harmony owes a little to J.S. Bach’s ‘Sheep May Safely Graze’, as does of course Procol Harum’s ‘Lighter Shade of Pale."
Story in The Big Takeover - July 15, 2019 - Read - "“I’m just a guy holding the pen” is the poignant opening line of the recent Steve Kilbey & Gareth Koch collaboration “Lost at Sea”. The single releases on July 5th via MGM and The Big Takeover is thrilled to host its U.S. premiere.
The song lyrics statement seems innocent enough at first glance, yet it elegantly addresses the mystery of creativity. How does art come into being, and is the creator just a filter or medium for the creative process?"

Lyrics
i’m just a guy holding the pen but this fair city brings down the song that i’m singing to you and all i am is just a pair of eyes the whole world is watching through me trying to get to me
there’s a voyage into solitude there’s no escape from yourself celebrate every day you’re not dislocated or amalgamated into the past
jazz my stolen heart cold and golden hold my stars in your hand
i’m just a fool under a stupid moon but this river rushes onwards into the dawn i’m just a voice you hear sometimes when you’re contemplating after you’re gone before you were born
when you’re lost at sea all alone when you’re roaming in no-man’s land thank the universe no fate could be worse you pray to god to understand
jazz my stolen heart cold and golden hold my star in your hand ...ahh
