David owns a project studio in the Baker Street area of London’s West End, where he is often to be found ensconced, working on a new song or building up the stack of recordings which has been steadily growing over the years!
Performing with his band MONOMAN UK prompts many of the more energetic, politically oriented songs, which range at one end of his songwriting spectrum, to the other end which is smoother and mellower and altogether much less scary.
What a wonderful evening. Thanks so much for playing guys. Was a great atmosphere and have had really great feedback from people who were there. The whole set of bands gave brilliant sets.
Looking forward to the footage now - did you know someone in New Zealand was watching the live streaming of the gig - how exciting is that!!!!!
Will be in touch and hope to get together on Monday.
Thanks again not only for playing but for all the support and assistance to give to Podfest.
PODFEST Live present: Maria Willson + Minus IQ + Monoman + The Lettabees + DJ "Stouche Pepsee"
Check out the bands:
Maria Willson Maria herself, stunningly glamourous, has a voice somewhere between an English Kelly Clarkson and a younger Sheryl Crow. Her songs, albeit still just demos for now, ooze trans-Atlantic class, and are stomping pop/rock anthems underpinned by some fat Hammond style organ lines and chunky guitars such as the smouldering 'Ready to blow' or the sassy strutt of 'Agent Provocateur'. Demos for now, but destined for bigger things me thinks...... MusicReview Rated 6/6 ONSTAGE: 9:30 pm www. myspace. com/mariawillson
Minus IQ "Incredible, Great vocals... an edge that really stands out. Great stuff. " Will Sherman - Matchbox Recordings
"The gentle but passionate vocal of Charlie is strangely familiar to that of 80's giants Duran Duran, but there's a real mega rock track going on here - awesome!" Neon Promotions
"Minus IQ show a great talent beyond their years and adept at composing songs that the listener can enjoy and sing along to... get yourself along to one of their gigs because their worth your time. " www. makemusic. co. uk ONSTAGE: 9:00 pm www. myspace. com/minusiq
Monoman Reinvented 3 piece band from London with a vibrant, energetic punky sound.
Really enjoyed your set last night. Loved the new sound too. Thanks so much for playing for us.
Looking forward to the footage. The Photos are looking very good too - will post you a link when I have them uploaded. I will call you .... before I go to Austin

NOTE: The Green Dragon and Dark Compass podcasting royalty will be down that evening. If any bands fancy getting them their stuff for possible inclusion in some of the WORLDS most listened to podcasts (as well as getting close to the stage so you can see yourself online and, just maybe, on Scarlet BLONDE's Documentary, this is the day to do it!
