   About Jon Gorey
I started out playing in subways, now I play in bars and clubs. Both tend to be dingy, noisy, and host to an array of staggering drunkards and other characters, and that's the way I like it!

I also write for this webzine:

Let it be known that Scamper is NOT accepting blame for the Patriots' little loss the other night.

You were out looking for a scapegoat awful early. If you need a fall guy for your superstitions, perhaps you should look inward at your own lack of faith.

That is all.

Congrats man. Just played a great show at wolf trap in DC. My friend Woodrow LAndfair sold it out. It was a blast. I'm going to try to set up a Boston show. He's a fantastic writer. You should check him out being literate and all.

Hey Jon Gorey, My new single, 'All I ever wanted', is being released by Warner Music Ireland on Friday 24th August. It'll be available for download on iTunes and digital7. From monday, you can also get from 3Ireland, Vodafone Ireland and o2 Ireland. The single is specially formulated to finally bring on some summer sunshine, but will only work if enough people download it ;)

Also, I just launched my new all-singing-all-dancing website. For a smoother internet experience. Hope you like it!

Cheers,

Paul
