I'm a solo bedroom recording artist recording on an 8 track and love all creative song based music.Don't like to be limited by genre,but i'm probarbly acousticelectricpsychedeliclounge-folk-jazzin'pop/rock i guess if its gotta be narrowed down..
I live in a 24/7 fantasy music bubble in a flat in Birmingham UK and like going for long walks in the sunshine making up songs in my head.. when i'm not sitting at the computer surfing and getting red eye..

Have just released my first solo album..The Stars Are Never Really Distant Its available to download here..

and available to buy here..

Am an incredibly passionate and sincere dilettante,which sounds like a contradiction in terms i know,but for me it feels true..

THE MUSIC IS THE MESSAGE...THE MUSIC IS THE MESSAGE..THE MUSIC IS THE MESSAGE...

Take a listen to The Davies Ison Project if the remit of very short lofi acoustic melodic songs sounds inviting for you..

Why this name?

My mom and Dad decided it before i was born

Do you play live?

Used to play live with my band Special Needs,but since we split,just do the occasional acoustic gig or play while a little drunk at parties..

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?

People can get music for free now

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?

The big boys have been after me for so long now..
I have to keep turning them and they're 6 figure advances down..
