Would like to say a big thanks to everyone cheering for us at the last moorings gig, if you dig our stuff give me a message with your address i'll get you a demo sent. we will hopefully be recording the almost 'drum n bass meets jazz uptown' jam - Make Me Some Coffee Bitch as well as the other songs.

cheers for your support,

Tom

would love to hear what you think, thanks for passing - please post a comment or send me a message if you are :)

Hey there, although this started off as a secondary myspace account of mine to put up songs as well as blog reviews of gigs, it has now turned into a side project of my main band contra. Songs are mostly songs I have written within the last 2 years, and more recently written stuff.

Influences - Bob Marley, King tubby, Horrace Andy, Sublime, Rx Bandits, Portishead, Massive Attack, Groove Armada, Bedouin Soundclash, Queens of the Stoneage, Miles Davis, Paul Weller, Dream Theatre, Meshuggah
