'Beat the Knave' is Trevoracious, an Irishman living in Toulouse, France since 2001. 'Beat the Knave' is inspired by a well-known children's nursery rhyme, the knave being a cheeky thief that steals tarts from the King and is therefore beaten "full sore" for his troubles, in an effort to show him the 'right' way (whatever that may be). 'Beat the Knave' writes songs with very basic means i.e. in his head. Over the past few years, he has been lucky enough to cross paths with some very talented composers/producers (mainly Andy Richards from Uniform Motion and Kat Cross) who heard promise in his lo-fi recordings. Kat is currently helping him to reanimate some songs which, at first, were just promising bones but are now developing and becoming a lot more fleshy. Trevoracious also works with Andy for live work with Uniform Motion and with Kat Cross for her solo project. These are great people to work with and have brought him a lot of inspiration. On we go...

Pris en flagrant délit ! T'en fais pas, j'ai dormi après. J'espère que j'ai pas été trop offensant avec mes blagues à répétition sur les courgettes hier. Elles étaient très bonnes.
