Sounds Like"north's biggest acoustic talent" - The Bar Convent

"Immaculate alternative rock pop" - stripped @ Mr Foleys"

“Like Ben Folds meets Badly Drawn Boy and they both give Walt disney a Good Kicking. AKA Pouty Pouty Gorgeous, one of the driving forces behind Soma and destined for bigger and better things in the next 2 years. Keep your peepers peeled.” - Rich Huxley (alamo music)

“Mike Gatto brings new meaning to the phrase one man band, This Guy is mesmerising…and he knows how to pout!” - North Yorkshire council

"Very clever intro and song unfolds to be something quite different. Really enjoyable. Nothing better than the songwriter singing themselves and expressing the passion for the music and lyrics. Great job..." - DSSMusic on Candlelit Romance (October 13, 2008)

we're working on video. Short film showing that we all live in fake
reality. People wearing masks, carrying frames so they dont see whats
going on for real. Like zombies. Idea is to connect that with song and
put together as music video. Fancy start work on this project?

Poem 230 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(see my blog for details): 
CHRISTMAS SUNG SIMPLY

As gospellers have said,
Beneath signalling skies,
On land dusty to tread,
A trough in a stable
Was the strawy first-bed
Of a divine baby -
The forgiving Godhead.

A season for new hope -
There then and here now;
The yuletide of goodwill -
There then and here now.

In respect of this chance,
Beneath bright or dark skies,
Faith's the star that we glance
Attending Christ's churches
And trying to enhance,
With singing and ritual,
Our God-loving stance.

A...

Thanks Mike, I think I was having a Lord of the Rings moment when I came up with S' Fair.
I was actually thinking about Film Score when I  put it together, I am so chuffed you said that!!!
I do love the song though S & G's version has to be my favourite but its such a dark song. I don't like all these pretty twee versions of it.
Hope to catch you soon maybe.
And thanks for your kind comments and glad you liked it!

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(please see my blog): 
TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001 

Where traditions are not so rare; 
    Sea, country and works scent the air; 
A multitude of monuments, 
    Planted tubs and patterned pavements. 

The longish pedestrian malls; 
    The remnants of defensive walls; 
Historic buildings are a gauge 
    Of the respect for heritage. 

Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; 
    Estuaries guarded by shields; 
Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; 
    Romantic-ruin go-betweens. 

Rivers in parts licked by trees, 
    Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, 
And crossed by practical delights - 
    Varied spans, forming pleasing sights. 

Fine churches headed at Durham; 
    Football kits ad infinitum; 
Kept castles - one for study; 
    Masonry behind masonry. 

And, with moulding-works out that way, 
It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?

I'm sorry we screwed up with that video. It's just lack of time and
loads of website work. But we haven't forgot about that! We're quite
ready to shoot your video next month or later. And for NOW, I just
wanted ask you if you would like to come to jesmond tomorrow for short
interview? We start NNTV as a part of NewcastleNite.co.uk project. Next
month we kick off and now we're collecting first materials. It would be
great if you find some time. It's Joe's, my friend's house, we'll get
sofas out to the garden and it will be cool:) Oh, and tomorrow it's our
first day of shooting the documentary. We would like to get local bands
and artists involved in scoring production.

not sure if you know that our emails are @newcastlenight.co.uk(used to be newcastlenite.co.uk and @cinephotorooms.com now.
look forward to hearing from you my friend.
