Forrest has previously released six solo albums, Down the Hillside, Paper Crown, No Imagination, The Edge Of Nowhere, Population 4000 and Candlelightwater on Desert Mine Music.[3]

In 2016, Forrest formed a new band called Sewage Farm with bass player Danny Trew Barton and drummer Danny Hirst.[4] The band released their debut album, Cloudy, on Desert Mine Music in November 2016.

Currently, Forrest has two active rock bands, the first being Sewage Farm[5]. That band released the EP, Mould in 2023, via Safe Suburban Home Records with reviews coming in from Janglepophub[6] and others. To mark the release, Forrest was also interviewed by Soundsphere magazine,[7] about his career, and previous musical acts. The second active band is Strange Pink[8], that group performed its debut show at The New Adelphi Club in Kingston Upon Hull on 9 March 2024.

As of 2024, Forrest released a new solo album, Caught Under A Spell.[9]

Strange Pink released a debut single on 23 May 2025, called Pencil Chewer,[10] and an EP, named Out of Focus,[11] was also announced to be released in August that year. Early support came from Steve Lamacq at BBC Radio 6 Music,[12] Jericho Keys at BBC Music Introducing,[13] Amazing Radio[14], John Kennedy (Radio X)[15], and others. The band features Eddie Alan Logie on bass and backing vocals, Dom Smith on drums[16] and Forrest on vocals and guitar.[17] Out of Focus was released on 22 August 2025 via the Hull-based indie label, Forever Underdogs.[18] Upon release, the EP was favourably reviewed online by FLEX,[19] No Transmission,[20] Aural Aggravation[21] and other music blogs. In November 2025, Strange Pink released two remixes (via York-based electro-indie label, Attention Economy Recordings[22]) for the songs Pencil Chewer, and Boys Club under the title, Pictures of Strangers.[23] The remixes were created by Officers (Pencil Chewer)[24] and bdrmm (Boys Club)[25].
