   About Darren J Claxton

Artist Information Instrumentation: Darren J:acoustic,electric and bass guitars. drums and percussion,occasional keyboards,vocals/harmonies and all other sounds. Biography Now where do we begin? On a cold and frosty december in 1973 a little ginger baby was born named Darren James Claxton,His father Shared the same initials DJC and he was a music nut having a fine collection of vinyl LP's,the years went by and little Daz began to show an interest in music,he would bang stuff together and generally make a racket,DJC snr bought him various toy instruments to play on and soon realised that this boy had some kind of genius talent! (im not writing this myself honest haha). Darren got to the age of 11ish and started big school,during his first music lesson he had a go on a proper full sized drum kit,and low and behold he could muster up a tight beat!! the teacher mr russell was gobsmacked and so invited DJC jnr to play in the school jazz band. A few more years went by,and during this time he hassled Daddy about drums,nearly everyday,"i remember Dad saying,Boy im not buying you drums if your gonna get bored of them within a few months,youve got to prove to me that you can actually play properly",so one night the local landlord of the pub had a leaving party as he was moving onto to bigger and better things,so DJC snr took little Daz with him to the party,"i cant really remember how it happened,but i think the drummer forgot his sticks,so i said "ive got some Mr,i quickly ran home (15mins there and back) and got my sticks,zildjian nylon tipped!! then i asked if i could have a go,he obliged,I thought,im goona show Dad i can play,so thats what i did,except i played the whole gig hahaha. That was it,Mr C was delighted!! so he bought little DJC jnr the drums he always wished for. Things just rocketed from there,Darren played in many bands of all styles and performed in front of huge crowds around cambridgeshire,bedfordshire and even londonshire! Darren now plays the guitar,bass,keyboards and has even found a voice,he admits "im not the best singer in the world by far,but it fits my music,well i make it fit lol!! "lots of promises are made to you when you are in a band,record labels ,managers and ordinary folk who offer you the world but never deliver.I take these promises with a pinch of salt these days because,BEEN THERE DONE THAT!! So now Darren writes his own original material tucked away in his cellar studio in his little cottage somewhere in the derbyshire countryside. "So that was a little story about me etc etc,all true i must add,amusing and maybe slightly egotiscal but hey,i think we all are to a point eh? Enjoy the tunes and leave me a message if you so wish.

hey there, Darren J Claxton!

well, it's been a long and winding road, and an even longer time coming, but my debut CD, 'I Remember', is FINALLY HERE!!! YAY!!!!!

to celebrate, American HeartBeat Records(tm) has arranged a FREE DOWNLOAD of "Now Is The Time" in exchange for a valid email address. "Now Is The Time" is a brand new, upbeat song I wrote about hope for America's future, and the world.

we've got a bunch of exciting things planned to kick this whole thing off, and we need to get a better picture of who our friends are, so the FREE DOWNLOAD form will ask you a few questions, like, what's your country and nearest major city. it all takes maybe 15 seconds.

anyhoo, the FREE DOWNLOAD, and the FUN, begins at www.JAETCHISON.com

I look forward to getting to know you a little better, and I thank you SO VERY MUCH for your friendship and support!

please tell your friends about JAETCHISON.com, and ask them to sign up for the email list, too! FUN things are coming up!!



peace from Atlanta, Georgia, USA,


J.A. Etchison
