December
December. One guy. Some gear. A tainted vision.
These songs are of extremely lo-fi quality. MP3's made from old cassette tapes. They need re-recording. I need the spirit to do this. Can you help?
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
(The boy) started in 'the biz' at tender age of 14, playing drums in a punk outfit supporting the Billy Idol led - Generation X on a UK tour. Other 'claims to fame' include working with Paul Young, Bobby Ball (YES, HIM!) and having a bona fide No.1 record! (Sore point though this.. needs coaxing out of him!!)
Gradually developed ability to manipulate guitar,keyboards, bass, bagpipes etc, and turned into electro 'one man band' type. Wrote songs for and played in many different bands since, including '80's synth pop duo' type, 'Northern cabaret artiste' type, 'Scandinavian AOR' type, etc etc.
Wrote demos for music software during early 90's, plus gig reviews and demo reviews for various publications. A walking encyclopedia of pop knowledge,and a walking travesty of a musician, with a back catlogue HE deserves to die for.
Here, now, take,leave, laugh,cry, no-one cares.
You see, there is ALWAYS ... December. ;-)
