What can I really say about myself? I will start with the basics I guess. Billy is the name the folks give me after months of fighting and debating over what to call the perfect child. Fyffe.. well.. I guess the folks liked bananas. I grew up a spoilt brat. I got everthing I wanted. Unfortunely one thing I never got at a young age was a guitar. "You're not going do my head in with that racket!" my mum shouted on many the occasion when her son would walk up with a smile on his face and ask for that guitar. No, my dreams didn't end there. After years, twelve to be exact, of begging and bribery, finally I plucked up the courage to ask on last time for a guitar. And to my surprise this time, the folks said "Ok! But you better buy headphones!" So the next weekend, I took myself down to Matchetts Music in Belfast and bought a beautiful wee Fender guitar. I knew one chord that day, the D chord, which the boys in Matchetts were sick off while I placed it about thousand times but of course they were glad of my business. Since that day, I have taught myself like three more chords and I've wrote loads of songs. Yes it's surprising what you can do with limited resources. I've played in a couple of bands with great lads and the lads have taught me alot about music, pineapples and homosexuality.. oh wait the homosexaulity never happened... yes anyway.. they taught me alot and I thank them for it but my own acoustic is my passion. I sing about life, love and my faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus give me my life, my many female admirers (i know it's like only three) but most of all, Jesus died for me on the cross. For my sins, for my friends, my fans and for you so the debt I owe Him, even though it's greater than I can ever pay back, is to tell people like you about Him through the only way I know how... through my music. Jesus gave me the gift of music so I will use to glorify him and hopefully trigger a chord in you to get to know Him. I know people aren't down for the religious stuff but don't just shut off my music because what I believe. It's who I am. Give me a chance. Give Jesus just one chance even if it's through my music. I hope you won't be disappointed. I know I wasn't when I heard Jesus through the music of a band. My music is about LIFE, LOVE and MY FAITH. I hope and pray you enjoy it.

Clements [QUBSU] Acoustic presents:
20th November:
Dolbro Dan
Dolbro Dan is Daniel Mulligan, a 23 year old songwriter from Bangor, Northern Ireland. He plays his own alternative folk songs on harmonica and 'dolbro' resonator guitar [hence the name Dolbro Dan] and has even been compared to a young Bob Dylan…
His album Singin' Homemade Music is out now! Check his MySpace for more information on how to buy.
'Daniel's songs are simple but effective strummers with charming self-referential ruminations. There's a great sense of self-deprecating humour and fun with a keen handle on when to play it entirely straight too' Alternative Ulster

David McCann
Guitarist/singer/songwriter whose lilting melodies and wistful lyrics make his gigs worth going to!

Doors 8pm, admission free!
Tuesday 6th November, Clements QUBSU!
RL/VL
October was a busy month for RL/VL, with a performance at Common Grounds and a live session for Queen’s Radio’s “The Attic” show. He kicks off Clements Acoustic’s November with an ambient set, although his full set usually includes some IDM!
“RL/VL’s debut E.P. “Wake Up, Log Off” is now available through Laced Milk.”

Greg McLarnon
Local up-and-comer Greg McLarnon will be making his debut performance with us at Clements Acoustic! Although his roots are in metal, the material he has been writing for his forthcoming E.P. is mainly of a mellow acoustic ilk.

Yup, make sure you get down early though!
do you know matt livingstone? He is my flatmate, and could get you on the student radio. don't worry too much about booking a gig, there are a few open mic gigs everynight. you better bring beer though!!
get in touch with Micah about a gig, he is always booking them! If I booked you one, I'd have to take a cut!!
sure thing, but beers are on you. My flatmate is on the student radio, maybe you could do a gig?
After the launch party with Natty Wailer (formerly of Bob Marley and the Wailers) we will be running an open mic in the first half every Thursday so you will be welcome to come along to that. If you're
