Sounds Like
1 voice, 2 more voices, a drum kit, a bass guitar, an electric quitar, a Rhodes, a synthesiser and sometimes another guitar, making songs that belong somewhere in the Rock & Pop section of your local record shop. Comparisons have been made to Muse, Blur, Dexy's Midnight Runners, and many other bands that we don't really sound like. Decide for yourself.
Firstly we want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Jolly New Year!
Unfortunately in the Oversol camp, we have some sad news. Although we have had such a great time being part of Oversol and have had many laughs on the way, Tom and then Aaron felt that it was their time to move on. As for the rest of the band, we feel that it would be an impossible task to fill their amazingly talented shoes, and it has therefore resulted in the closing of a chapter in our lives too.
We want to thank you all for your amazing support, for all the CDs you bought and the gigs you sang your hearts out at! We hope you have enjoyed Oversol as much as we have. Who knows, you may see some of us venturing out in other things soon!
The Sunday Express (five stars) ***** "It's clear from the title track that you are listening to something special with O'Connor's second solo album... It's time for KT, Sandi and Amy to make room because this should launch a new Scottish star into the charts. ''
The Herald (four stars) **** ''O'Connor has one of the best voices heard in Scotland in some time, and a set of fine songs to show it off...''
The List (four stars) **** There is an unmistakable modern twist to her music, and she flits effortlessly between, husky poppiness on the likes of 'Saturday Man' to soulful stripped down and spine tingling.

Wilfy Williams announces his first solo gig supporting the world famous Alabama3 at Dirty South in London on Saturday 22nd December 2007. Alabama3 are the best live band in the country(The Guardian) who wrote Woke Up This Morning, theme tune to the hit show The Sopranos.
With Wilfy supporting its sure to be a night to remember. The Pompey Busker is a man on a mission to put English music back where it belongs at the pinnacle of the music world. He’s been attracting support from some of the most influential and talented people in the business. With his genius lyrics and epic guitar solos, the demos on myspace offer a solid, if minimal glimpse of the entertainer and performer that is Wilfy Williams.
You may remember Wilfy Williams from such previous songwriting favourites as:
STAR IN THE CROWD(Daily) THE WHO(Daily) ADAMANT(The Fret) A DIFFERENT SOUND(The Fret) &More Recently A NEW BEGINNING(Wilfy Williams).
His new tune HEAVEN THROUGH YOUR EYES was recorded with his friend and mentor Phil Owen(old school Pompey Busker) who has passed his ‘hat’ and his wisdom on to Wilfy. The song is available to download for free only on myspace.
