The Neon Sound

Bio:

.. The Neon Sound likes to pretend he can play instruments when nobody else is watching. The Neon Sound sometimes calls upon other musicians to watch / criticize / ignore / participate in the artistic process that has been known, in some circles, as "making songs." If things go according to plan, these songs are recorded and played under the aforementioned moniker for your listening enjoyment (ideally). The Neon Sound once had another name but that is a boring story.

***** We're currently working on the new album. If you like what you hear, please buy the 1st EP, seventeen minutes in the cheap seats on iTunes. *****

Here is the new video for Primrose Hill

Here is an unfinished love song called: Down by the River
