I write acoustic based pop music accompanied with violins and Trumpets. I would guess you would see me fitting loosely in between the popular music genre with my own style and representation of acoustic based Folk/Rock/Pop. Its Picking/Pop/and all that!
I have had the privledge of playing alongside some great and talented musicans. I can name a few here: Luke Pickett ,Dartz!, Luke Leighfield, The Television Talks, Tonight Is Goodbye, Dave House, Kevin Barnes, Frank Turner, Furthest drive home, The Broadcast and many more. Our show list includes gigs at the Cavern, Liverpool, The Barfly, london, The FLy, London, and the Cardiff, Barfly among a few of the Uk's best loved venues.
The majority of 2008I spent writing new meterial in planning for my debut album, "Be Part Of it", Which was out on Monday May 11th 2009. The album is on sale now for only £3. It includes all the tracks uploaded to myspace, and more.... I intend on spending the majority of 2009working through shows, and promoting the album. Meanwhile the track "Best Days Of your Life", Taken from my album is out on July 1st, and is available for FREE DOWNLOAD. I have begun piecing together a new EP, I hope to release toward the end of 2009, and of course work on a new music video.
Before you leave, you can download FREE, two tracks taken from my album, "Good Luck" and "young Before the Evening" . Please feel free to take full advantage of this FREE STUFF, and tell all your friends.
I would like to thank all those who has ever supported me and my music, and all those who have ever turned up to any of my past shows, including all those who played on my records old and new, and those who played a part in the last progressive year or two, however big or small.
Messages and comments are always responded to personally by me, so please feel free to get in touch, cos its great to hear from you.
The first gig i ever went to was to see 'Stamping ground', alongside 'Free Base' not too long after (Those were the days). The following make up my everyday: Incubus, GCWCF, Sublime, Sick of it all, Nizlopi, Frank turner, Dashboard confessional, Blink 182,Lionel Richie, Counting Crows, Frank sinatra, Jhonny cash, Hundred reasons, Micheal Jackson, The Vandals, Lagwagon, The Offspring, Mad caddies, Lostprophets, Reel Big Fish and many others I grew up listening too, and who later enspired the songs i write.

I thought I'd drop by to let you know about the upcoming I Have Clones UK tour this July! Dates are up on my page now but basically we're playing everywhere from Glasgow to Torquay and if you can get down to a show it'd be awesome to hang out.
Hope you are lapping up the weather we are being treated to at the moment, looks like the summer has well and truly arrived! What better way to celebrate than to get urself to the Camden barfly on Sun 26th July, cold beer in hand for what looks set to be one corker of a show.
We are going to be sharing the Barfly stage with some awesome bands including All Forgotten (who are launching their brand new E.P. the same night) Scholars and hearts under fire. Be there or be square.
We realise how this is quite obviously automated and you will probably consider it as spam and ignore it.. but if you are feeling the need for a some fresh new music please visit our page and give our new EP a listen. We've worked really hard on it and had some excellent feedback so far and would love to hear what you guys think.
"Exciting, Striding and assured. It has an energy reminiscant of everything that was good about the Klaxons debut album.." - BBC Radio Bristol.
"The overall sound echoes that of Bloc Party but with great conviction and sophistication. Go see them live if you can." - iTunes review.
It's also available to buy through our website and itunes if you really do like it.
Big big thankyou for coming up and playing the other night. It was an incredible set considering you weren't feeling great. You are always welcome back at Howard's Front Room and hoepfully we can offer you guys more shows later in the year. Oh and I didn't get a copy of the album, so will have to get one off you!
hey, i'm not sure if you've seen the bulletins, but i'm releasing a new single on June 1st. are you gonna be able to come by and check it out, and leave some feedback?
