Hello and welcome, I am Chris. I write songs and I record them. I was formed in 1984 with the help of my parents. I then went on to develop a taste for music and here am I now...
Why this name?
Coincidence really
Do you play live?
On occasion with my band. I'd love to play some solo gigs soon.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It's a pity really, There nothing like going out and buying an LP. But it's good for people like me who want to share their music.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Probably, yes. As long as it was a good deal and I had control over my music.
Your influences?
The Beatles, Rush, E.L.P, King Crimson. Progressive rock Musically and once I heard Frank Zappa I knew I couldn't possibly write serious lyrics. Growing up with the Transformers also takes it's toll musically, nothing like some hard rockin' 80's tunes.
Favorite spot?
Anywhere beside the Ocean
Equipment used:
Gibson SG, Epiphone Casino, A cheap acoustic from Donegal. Hughes and Kettner Attax 80, Marshall Dsl 100. Various effects pedals, Zoom MRS-802...and of course a casio Keyboard!
Anything else...?
I have a fascination with the number 47. It haunts me
