   About winston echo
Winston Echo is me, Chris East. I'm sometimes a bit lonely.

!!! LATE NIGHT TAXI DRIVER BADMINTON BLOG !!!

"winston echo is the crabby writer of love songs, the dreamer in pessimist clothing; he's on the outside of the box where we all are, and leads us hand-clapped into singalong-a-bittersweet triumph! ours is the quiet victory of joy mapped out by modern lovers and friendly ghosts - deep charted waters to an outlook previously known to us: an open observance and naive attendance; a song you sing to keep yourself company - and that's as punk as punk can get! and winston echo could be the best thing we ever had"

I started writing songs and recorded my first CD over christmas 2003 and played my first gig in the new year. It was a disaster. All sorts of stuff went wrong. Oh dear, i thought. Oh dear indeed.

I listen to too many cds and records and don't spend enough time writing songs. I like being a bit silly but This Is Not A Comedy. Yes, some of my songs are funny, but it isn't a joke. It's just the only way I know. Maybe I'm an emotional cripple, who knows?

!!! GIMME MONEY !!!

I got some t-shirts and they are amazing, they come in S, M, L and XL and they have this design on them

they are printed yellow on sky blue and cost £10, if you would like one, send me a message.
here's what they look like when worn (ignore the one on the left, that was a special one off i made for lauren because she asked me AGES ago)

later this night Rob would throw a pint of lager beer in my lap

also, get these 4 badges for £3, message me!

Hello. Please do delete this comment if you so wish.

We're just making sure that everyone knows that our debut album 'Horses For Courses' is available to buy from our little record label's online shop:

http://www.donttellclare.co.uk/shop.htm

Its been selling faster than we expected, and we currently only have around a quarter of our stock left - so we thought we'd better you all know that if you want a copy then now would be a good time to pick one up! If you buy it from the link above then you're buying it direct from us, the label aren't taking a cut - so its a bit like Fair Trade for struggling musicians.

International mail-order is available, just follow the instructions.

Thank you very much, and sorry for making a mess of your profile. If its any kind of consolation, we don't have a MySpace bot, so I'm leaving these comments the old fashioned way. Three -and-a-half thousand of them. My life is so exciting.

Lots of love
Das Wanderlust

Hi winston echo,
We've uploaded a new song 'Prolonged People', we love it but we're kinda biased, so come tell us what you think.. We'd appreciate it and mention you in our prayers (for better and for worse ;)

Hello Chris, I know you must have missed us terribly as its been so long. You haven't added any songs to your profile for yonks, is it cos you have been a facebooker or doing your blog thing lots. (Not to say your songs aren't still as fresh as the first time by the way). How are you besides?

Hi,

I'm happy to announce that my new album "Songs From The Films Of David Lynch" is out now.

"Truly unsettling and perplexingly brilliant... testament to both the quality of Lynch’s soundtracks and Truax’s talents" - The Skinny

Lynch Album Cover Medium jpg

"Truax is paying homage to a kindred spirit with this album. It's the best kind of tribute – affectionate and respectful, but with its own quirks and imaginative leaps and its own distinct identity." -The Scotsman


"Great stuff." -Buzz Magazine
