So... Here we are again, another month and another free EP for y’all. This time the singer in question is Jimmy McGee from the fantastic Bobby McGees (Who you should all DEFINATELY check out for they are tweetastic) This will be the final EP in this chapter as the first 4 are being released as a set of 7” singles (500 Copies) by Sickroom Records later this year. I’m already working on the next 4 EPS (which will hopefully be coming out on 7”s next year at some point. Exciting stuff indeed, stay tuned...

Happy New Year! Its freezing cold, snowing and no one has any money. Brilliant. But the new Detective Instinct EP is here as promised and its all still FREE, so thats good, isn’t it?! My able accomplice this time is the fantastic G.W. Sok, frontman of Dutch post-punk legends, The Ex. He has worked with Sonic Youth, Tortoise, ICP, the late Tom Cora and loads of other ace bands and that. He is a thoroughly splendid chap and was a joy to work with. For more info on him/The Ex have a read of these pages

BIOG:

I like to record songs, it helps pass the time.....

I work very quickly for i am the impatient type.....

I like to work alone, but cannot sing so i get help from my friends....

I'm going to do an unspecified amount of these, how long it will last i cannot say...

All songs are free to download, copy, keep or delete....

If you are interested in getting involved, get in touch...

I hope you like.
