   About Big Squirrel
One eats meat, one does not. Two men of indistinguishable age emerge from the mists of time (well, it was a foggy old day, I tell ya) with a plan. To create the loudest music possible with only an acoustic guitar, some amps and a drumkit. We succeeded. Now we must be destroyed.

Ello bro, had a look at your festival pics, looked rather good indeed, pretty scary for all those people to have your face on that big screen though.
Things are busy and good played my first London gig on Tuesday, went well, really nice little basement venue. Got a gig in Brighton tonight what looks well good then Kent festival next week. Just doing it all myself with a laptop, guitar and midi keyboard.
Managed to get myself a record deal with (scum based)coercion records for a limited amount of vinyl, which will hopefully have a remix by Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly on the b side, should be released in the autumn.
Hope you're good, see ya soon x
