me most of the time......some have told me they hear a bit of gene clark, elliott smith, neil young, the beatles which is hopefully evidence that i'm doing something right!
started my musical existence with early 90's glasgow group 'a chocolate morning', releasing a couple of indie singles along the way before the bands' sad demise in 1994. recorded an album of 8 track acousticness with my friend / producer / engineer frank gallagher titled 'nothinghead' which came out on our 'troubadour' label in 1995. despite an enjoyable year of touring the album the lure of electric volume won out when 'the goldenhour' was formed in 1996. to date we have released 2 albums ('beyond the beyond' -raft records 2003) and 'always in the now' - neon tetra records 2005) and played over 200 gigs throughout the uk.
currently playing live with my fantabulous band (NS & The Infomaniacs) and also as a solo acoustic artist. i'm also working on my second solo album 'geography and luck' which will hopefully see the light of day in spring 2010.....

Thanks for your message Neil. I enjoyed seeing you and Celine play last Saturday. You compliment her really well. I'm pretty sure HBC loved it too. Thanks for coming and doing the gig. Glad you like the photos. I've got a biog and photo of you up on my blog as well. Hope to see you guys again soon.
You liked my music in the past so I thought i'd let you know that I've uploaded four brand new songs from my new album "Playing With Fire" onto myspace.
The new True Margrit CD - The Juggler's Progress - is now available for pre-order, along with t-shirts and artwork, photo and drumheads, as we get ready for our monthlong tour of the Great Northwest! Check it out here: http://bit.ly/7Cu8J
Look for us in Washington, Oregon and California between October 15 and November 15, when our tour wraps up with the big show at San Francisco's best rock club, Bottom of the Hill! For the complete show schedule, check here: http://bit.ly/1UgGqQ

Four more little sonic gems for your August pleasure are now available on the site. Blitzen Trapper, Boulder Acoustic Society, Jay Brannan and The Wiyos. Yet another fine quartet even though we say so ourselves as picked them out.
Hi Neil hope all is well with you and K, nothing happening on any music front here, apart from the fact i have done some backing vocals for an album and having listened to the finished product i sound like a strangled male cat on female hormones inhaling helium! Not a very good advert for me is it?! he he! Never mind,, take care of yerself and Karen, speak to you soon xx
Hello, after an unfortunate hiatus, the reasons for which are probably best not gone into here, we finally have some new music on the AUK MySpace site. For your listening pleasure this month we offer Nathan Oliver, Conrad Ford, the irrepressible Todd Snider and the delightful Beccy Owen. Don't forget too, for those of you within striking distance of Leicester, Electric Dustbowl 2 on 19 September.
