Paul Sumner writes pop song's, mostly in a room with a bath.
He live's in a small town by the sea, in the North West of England. Soggy chip butties & kiss me quick hats...That sort of thing.
He has a cat called Graham.
Hopefully, a new collection of songs will be released shortly.
Please take care, and be creative & kind to each other.
If you like what you hear, but don't like to wait for the postman, you can download my 1st album A World of Horses" from iTunes or buy the CD at the wonderful cdbaby. Simply click on the icon below
Alternatively, if you, like me prefer a real cd as opposed to a digital download. I still like to open up the pack and read the booklet, etc. Call me old fashioned. Then simply click on the button below and i will post a copy to you, with my own fair hands for £5.95 including postage & packing to anywhere in our dear old world.
Ayup. Just stopping by so see what you've been up to. had a listen to the Maybe Its You tune. I do love a good cello. BBC Xmas Ghost Stories. The Signalman! Scared the crap out of me when I was 10. Denholm Elliot I think. Mind you, Children of the Stones over on ITV was even worse! Not been up to much here over last 12 months but recorded something new. Not got it quite right yet. Vocal is too high.
Hi Paul, Just popped in... 'ey... just watched Eric and Ern, all the way through, with Andy Preview :). What a hoot! Took me right back to when I was a nipper. Cheers Chris PS still laughing now :)
cheers paul, i'd never heard of Kevin Coyne uptil i got your comment, i thought i'd check him out an I gotta admit theres some similaritys, our basic guiar playing style is pretty similar ..i had top note missing, so i tweeked the remaining top 3 an play em as though im playing bass an they resememble a chord. an looks like he was doing it before me lol ,, I like some of his songs, but i hope i take other lessons from watching guys like him an harry nilson, as im a fellow chainer an heavy drinker, who looked an was in half decent shape but at 28 is starting to get a gut an put over a stone on an getting bad chest in the morning especially lol ect ... these guys aged real fast an real bad didnt they bot in looks an health, an you look at the likes of Bruce Springsteen at 60 ect .. i know which one id rather be lol ...
New track up. another cover. No I haven't stopped writing, it's just happened that way lately. :-) This time, it's an old Jimmy Webb classic that you might recognise, despite the Swedish lyrics. I also share the lead vocals with three Spacemates, which made a nice change. Hope you like it!
