Bad Dancer and Snippet's demo 'The Teacher' has been used as the music for an animated short film-'Jim's Retirement' by Tomas Woodbridge




 
  "Dry of humour and lo-fi of sound,the skewed pop of Colchester's Snippet is reminiscent of early Beck"-Q Magazine
 
"This something very special,so odd and so delightful,what I particularly love about his work is that he combines an exquisite traditional pop sensibility that all his songs are insanely catchy so he writes great pop hooks but he is working from home within a Do It Yourself ethic,rather than trying to do the high road to big backing ,he is making the music he loves,all his songs have that skewed and peculiar thing about them,I wish more people knew about him,spread the word,you'll enjoy it and you won't regret it"- Tom Robinson BBC 6 Music
 
"Made us laugh a lot,touched a nerve,we love it"-Rob da Bank BBC Radio 1

"Mysterious and haunting,hopefully there will be more to come soon".-Properlychilled.com
 
"Unassuming, entertaining and clever tracks from Snippet"-The Architectural Dance Society
 
"Snippet’s music you say? The music?? Oh yeah…brilliant. Charming English folk pop, with great humour and melody"-Radio Caroline TV
 
"The opening track “I love your t-shirt” is a super catchy and well produced little song, with lots of fun studio-added elements, funky rhythms … “Just a man” continues the fantastic catchyness, and like the opener, the lyrics show Snippet’s sense for seeing things from unusual and humourous angles.... "Lovely ugly people" charmed us before, and it still does... the whole ep sounds especially good at times like these"-Eardrums music

"There's something about the left field that the English do really well...a songwriter who can write a whole novel about what he reads between the line and manages to nail the whole thing."- Fatea Magazine

"Excellent" - Sparky@Shock Pop

"It’s a sweet piece of oddball pop,with a little edge to make it memorable"-Russell's Reviews

"You are such a clever boy"- My Mum
 
"Colchester based 'Snippet' produce quirky pop music with funky folky twist. Snippet's music is shot through with a dry sense of humour, toasty warm vocals and various sounds delivered via a quirky imagination.
 
  The 5 track T Shirt ep is out now.
Snippet’s debut 4 track e.p ‘I’m Peckish’ was released in 2008 via the independent electronic music imprint Steal My Oil records and picked up rave reviews and featured on various radio shows and podcasts. Tom Robinson has featured 3 Snippet tracks on his Introducing show recently plus being featured on the Best of 2008 on BBC6 Music .
 
  Snippet is the brainchild of singer/songwriter/musician Johnno Casson.
 
  Snippet also writes and works with other artists. A recent collaboration has been with the wonderfully talented artist/producer 'Wim Oudijk’ for a version of the Snippet favourite 'Just to let u know' which is now included on Wim's new *Love* album.
 
  Snippet is currently working with Wim in the producers chair on brand new tracks which should see the light of day soon.Keep checking in as this material is sounding excellent and ' Snippets' will be posted from time to time.
 
  The original version of 'Just to let u know' is also included on the Norwegian compilation CD - "Around the world with My Little Pony, vol.1" from ace Norwegian band 'My Little Pony'.
 
  The Snippet song ‘Lovely Ugly People’ is due to beincluded on Volume 2 of the 'Birdsongs,Beesongs' compilation in April 09 from those good people at Eardrums music.
 
If you fancy something a little cheeky, squeaky and quite uniquey then throw on your shades, pull up a deckchair and dip your toe in!"
