   About Robert Courtney
Hi,

My name is Robert Courtney, and I make music that sounds like this.........

And this!


Powered by iSOUND.COM

About me:

I am an Aries, like my friend Suna, check out her site too!

www.myspace.com/sunamoya .

Studied Fine Art & Music with Michael Nyman and Brian Eno (visiting tutor).

DJ at The Garage, Nottingham (Alternative & Rock) and The Hippo, Nottingham (Indie, Pop, Rock, Jazz, Funk & early House) in the mid 80's.

Songwriter, guitarist, vocalist and the founding member of Cycle Annie,

Skin Patrol,

One Million Fuzztone Guitars,


Powered by iSOUND.COM

also; Courtney Bourne, Doll, Liberty Cushion, AKF, Astrology Party & AmpGod.

I have worked in the film industry (Pop Videos & Richard Stanley's Hardware) and the advertising industry (models and sets) also making album covers for Pink Floyd (Division Bell and US Box set armchair) and stage sets for Vivienne Westwood and Yahya al-Bishri.

Designer of the Sunatarot game in Paris with Suna Moya who came up with the concept

www.myspace.com/sunatarot.

But now I just wanna ROCK!

I'm pleased that so many of you seem to like the songs here.
Hope you enjoy, there are many, many more where they came from, will try and get them all downloadable soon.

"Back of '69" is available as a studio version on the Slot Records (vinyl only) solo album Everything's Happening along with 16 other classics of psychedelic garage rock and something that sounds like Heard Her Call My Name period Lou Reed playing Reggae with the Clash? Total stun guitar......

Everything’s Happening T-Shirts

What was it the A& R man at EMI said ...... "I like it, but guitar rock will never be popular again" Ha Ha Ha.... ****'s.

"Creepy Crawl" is available in studio version as the B-side of the Monsters in Orbit Records "Men's Hearts" single by my other incarnation as One Million Fuzztone Guitars.

The 50's trash comic "Nation of Cat Killers" and the premonition of what Britain has become of "Abbafan" come from the unreleased "Shiny Metal Heart" LP. There is an "alternative/electro" version of "Nation of Cat Killers" or "The Cat Song" as you like to call it, recorded during the "20th Century Box" sessions (unreleased), with a different riff played on a 60's monophonic Italian keyboard and a 70's synth. Me I like 'em both!

Who do I want to meet?

You!
