Yep – we’ve shit ourselves. At least, that’s what happened when The Fly saw this lot playing live. Was it booze, or just a loose bowel problem? Actually neither, because hearing Orphanboy on record is equally as brilliantly scary as we witnessed. Watch this lot VERRRY closely. They should be huge. SB

Hello there!!!

Hows it going these days?

I hope all is well and good and I just wanted to let you know I've just put up a new track called ECHO so I thought you might want to have a listen. :o)
It's just the instrumental version I did not long ago but I do have a full section of vocal to arrange into this track so I'll keep you posted on the outcome! :o)

I appreciate your time and support and any comments posted.

All the very best, take care.
