Alternative singer/songwriter from Cornwall. I play what I like to call 'Library Punk'- grungey blues riffs, stream of consciousness lyrics with the occasional twist of melodic folk. Currently a one-man band and playing regularly at acoustic nights across London, but this could change if the right rhythm section come along. Below are some of the 'records' I've DIY'd over the years. If you want a copy of anything or a sampler CD, send me a message. Alternatively, come and see me live as I usually have a few copies of the latest offering on me. Thanks for checking out the music. P.A.
Aye aye, would be greeeet to see your face. I'm well booked up for tomorrow, but do come down if u fancy a drink. Some great stuff on. You hear tom mac is back in town? If not fancy the week after?
Hi Nick, it has been a while, neah I'm still on Myspace and strong but I also have a Facebook lol ;-P. Are you still together with Bee?! Otherwise what else is new that side? You must come and have a listen to Human Nature the re-recorded version on my band's page too. We're doing quite well as a band, all is moving forward. Why u dissappeared from this earth?!
Hailz Nick, well things are cool, just celebrated me turning a quarter of a century old lol. The band is doing well, we have 10 songs, going to studio on the 28th of May to do our song Disorder, had a photo shoot which is being uploaded on the site in a week or so! What's new ur side friend?
Hailz Nick, well I have listened to the new Black Card songs, they rip, I really like them bro, very original and proffessional sound. Well us (MUNK) we are getting our set of 8 songs tight right now, did a cover of Therapy's Screamager as well to add to the set, have a lot of gig invitations, doing a photo shoot soon and all, so looking up, work is hectic as well and I have been really sick for like almost a month, a flu that just won't go away. How is life over at the North of the world?
Hailz bro, yeah u r right! However we have Guns 'n Roses coming over with Evanecense and Hooberskank, had Metallica here last year, so not too bad here in Jhb either with gigs lol! Plus we have some really cool rock festivals here too. Otherwise your spring should be nigh and how is life treating you in general? Any new developments?!? How is the music coming along?!
Hail Nick, howz life, long time no hear! Thanks man for the compliments, took me a while to create the page and the colour palletes etc. but I'm chuffed, things are going well, we had to let our drummer go though, wasn't pitching to rehearsals etc. so looking again but stuff is coming along very well indeed. We had a lot of good feedback. The article is biased I would say :-D because the guy who wrote it is a friend of my bassist but its all good. Good exposure! - YZ!
Twas a very cool sleepover indeed and cheers for having me over and just chilling with me and the Bee... I shall indeed return and there will be more drink, food and cool dvds to be watched!
Take it easy, have a great weekend and keep strumming
Heya Nick, thanks my bro 4 the feedback, our style is coming down to being a fusion of punk, metal and other influences outside of rock - so its safe to say every song will sound different and within different genres too. Hows things ur side? Doing many gigs? The project with your brother?
Yo yo Nick, how is the new job? And life in general? Come on over to my page and listen to a few new songs I uploaded, all home early versions with synth drums, bad levels and slightly out of time but gives u an idea. The newest addition is Human Nature, let me know what you think!
Hi there Nick, cool stuff.
Glad you like some of the new tracks. Can't wait to here your take on them production wise. Hope 2007 is going well for you so far man. Cheers. Dan.
Heya Nick! U said sad news?! I hope u r being sarcastic there mate, PP lol :-D then again we all had sum good memories from there and we know each other thanks to PP! Happy New Year 2 u and Bee (btw I'm glad she is staying on Myspace). Thanks about the demo was a home recording with synth drums but its a blue print, auditioning a session drummer tomorrow, we'll see how that goes, things are good here otherwise, have a nice lady friend now, her name is Sofia (she is my top friend on Myspace list), looking for work now, can't wait to get a job, going crazy sitting at home now! Where u going to be working now? Did u tell Ed my details?
Your welcome-your stuff sounds great. Have a brilliant christmas and new year. May see you about if you are back down in the wilds of Cornwall anytime.
Charlotte
Hey Nick. Did the Cd's arrive in the post yet? Sent you both Parts of the Nervous System, plus a couple of bands i'm into at the moment as requested.
How's the gigging going? Played 2 solo gigs the last two nights. Busy Busy.
Looking forward to what you think to the new stuff. Cheers.
Dan.
