Offbeat, quirky
Why this name?
'cos I am and I was one once.
Do you play live?
Best moment gotta be playing in an acoustic duo for a Xmas party a few years ago when I introduced us at the beginning. of the set when the audience suddenly realised what our name sounded like. We were asked to leave after the 1st song. I was Al "Norfok", my mate Dale "Goode" so we were Norfolk and Goode.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It gives people more chance to hear real musicians rather than manufactured stuff
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes no question
Band History:
Its all me really and I started playing by myself because I always go off the wall when playing covers and I really preferred playing my own stuff.
Your influences?
Jazz, Progressive Rock, Acoustic singer songwriter stuff, RnB and R+B. In fact any style as long as I like it. Ranging from Robert Johnson, Cole Porter through the Beatles, Stones, Queen, Van Halen, Elvis, even early Cliff Richard(very very early ie playing with the Shadows) up to the Fratellis for example. I like watching RnB videos LOL
Favorite spot?
Where I am now.
Equipment used:
Heritage Les Paul, Line 6 Toneport, Panasonic p30 keyboard, Cubase, BIAB
Anything else...?
All the songs have a story to them. About things that have happened to me, things I'd like to do to people..good and bad.
