Simple soulful acoustic tunes inspired by the 60's and 70's.
Hi im Brij, from West London. I am working on a new EP recoreded with PlankMusic, in the meantime, I've added some tracks for you. Some are acoustic 4-track demos I had put toghether on my own capturing my sounds, and 2 from our band The Wheels - Crazyman, On the Trip. As a singer/ song writer, I enjoy playing some solo stuff and doing acoustic gigs and also enjoy playing guitar and writing for our funky rock soul band - The Wheels. You can hear us at www.myspace.com/thewheels7.
These songs are tunes I have been working on and recorded in the past year or so. I hope you dig them and would like any feedback. I am a big fan of many musical flavours, especially the groovy days of the 60's and 70's - what a cool time!
I enjoy travelling the world, to meet cool hearted people, and make and hear sweet soulful music. Please let me know what you think of the tunes, or if you just want to get in touch or have any gigs! brij7@yahoo.com . Much Peace, love and good vibes to you all! Brij
Bloody hell, been a long time! How are you? Saw Tom last week and he was talking about how much he liked the new Wheels tunes. I'll be checking them out asap!
Anyway, I'll be down in London on Sunday - watching Oasis play in Camden, so if you're down that way then give me a buzz and we'll meet up for a beer?! Be good to meet up.
