Why this name?
originally all of my music was created in my bedroom hence the name of the band. "the bunkbeds"
Do you play live?
never played live , never will tooo feart. but if anyone out there wants to perform any of my songs they are welcome to.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
you can hear great music you would never have heard of before.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
no major label would give me a contract .lol.
Band History:
Some strange things have emerged from bedrooms round the world the Bunkbeds are perhaps the saddest and strangest.
They are possibly the worst band in the known universe but they just don’t care ‘cause they don’t realise.
To describe their music as Lo-Fi would be a major overstatement, in the twenty years or so that they have been recording music (their description) they have never purchased a piece of equipment valued at more than £20.00 and it shows.
oops i got a boss micro br an it cost £149.99 pounds sterling so i'm cheating now.
