Welcome to the all new and better maintained MyOneManBand Myspace page!
A new CD is on its way with a tentative release early next year, in the mean time MyOneManBand will be previewing tracks at some of the upcoming gigs that
can be found in his listings.
MyOneManBand has finally scored a slot at Hulls illustrious Sesh music night at the Linnett and Lark.
Phill will mark this occation by playing a good chunk of new material off his upcoming cd as well as some old favourates.
SO WHAT IS THIS MUSIC? I HEAR YOU ASK...
Well, Basically I got bored playing with myself (sort of speak) so I began to use a couple
of old delay pedals to get a bit of a beat going that i could play over, I guess you could say that since then things have got a little out of hand. All the
above tracks are live takes and all recorded with just me playing, sampling, singing and pressing effects boxes... all in real-time.....this AIN'T KARAOKE
KID!!!.
