Denigh A first class heavy rock band that should have made it into the higher echelons of great British Heavy Metal. Either supporting top acts or on their own, they had and still have a large loyal group of followers who continue to remember the dynamic performance and great songs written by the band. Due to popular demand but lack of finances, in 1984 their cassette album "Fire From The Sky" was released on Red Admiral Records. Many attempts to create the vinyl album to break through failed until eventually the band split in 1985. The CD is now available. Shop

   About Kentgigs

The Kent & E Sussex Guide was created by Chris in 1981 and then further developed with www.kentgigs.com in 1999.

His first involvement in the music business came about when his younger brother Nick asked him to help out as roady for the band he was forming. Overnight Chris became the vocalist, manager, transport and dogsbody for a series of bands. Chris experimented with a tape recorder, got hooked, and stayed hooked. His studio Europa Sound Studios was built in the basement of his house in Harvey St. Folkestone which operated until 1987. The studio had also started its own record label Red Admiral Records and music publishing Co. Cringe Music.

In 1981, not content with the press coverage of the wide range of entertainment available in Kent Chris started writing articles for the locaL press and then created the Kent & E Sussex Gig Guide which now networks "Wotson" listings for venues and bands to all of the media by any means available.

Chris built Europa II in Folkestone for a local musician but this was a short lived project, Chris producing only the Volecanoes Album by local session guys "The Maroondogs" and some tracks for Judge Dread.

Chris was selected by radio entrepeneur Eddie Austin to run "The Local Band Show" on RSL radio 'Shepway Sound', 'White Cliff Radio' and 'Thanet Sound' (Eddies projects led to the granting of the radio licence for Neptune Radio later sucked up by KMFM). In this period Chris was able to promote Kent bands, musicians and their own music. During his 62 live hours on air of music and chat, no cover band music was played except the music of current local bands and Internationally recognised Kent bands and writers. Never since the famous BBC Radio Medway "Mike Brill Kent Rocks" radio series had there been such support for Kent Musicians and bands.

An organisation was created in 2004 to help rejuvinate part of the Kent music scene with several music entrepeneurs coming on board providing their help. A lot of acts have benefitted from the combined skills of the organisation, their consultancy, labels, publishing and multiple facilities tuned to the act to establish them at their own level and prepare them for their next step up. Chris is also MD of Digimix Records Ltd.

CountryHome Forum, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , is one of the biggest Forum for country music in Europe and part of CountryHome, www.countryhome.de , Germany's Premier Online Country Music Magazine.

CountryHome Forum have more than 5,000 members. Each news you submit to CountryHome Forum will released to my weekly Newsletter with more than 50,000 readers.

Please submit your artist news and events to CountryHome Forum to help your artists to get well known better in Europe. If you do not have the time to submit your artist news and events by yourself, please send it me to: Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de and I will submit them by myself to CountryHome Forum.

I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.

I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.

Thanks
