Band/artist history
KingBathmat (aka John Bassett) was born in Walthamstow, London. He was raised by an ex convent nun and a meter reader, who fed him and looked after him until the age of 16, where he left school with very little else except a degree in truancy.
At the age of 18, kingbathmats heart was broken and crushed by a german girl which led him to embark on a mission to throw himself into music.
Now 6 years on......over 100 songs written......many broken up rock bands and relationships left in his wake......he has decided to become a solo artist and has finally written and produced the cd "Son of a Nun" which has been given rave reviews from all over the world for its song writing and production and its own unique style.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
I've been in bands in the past, i do the odd acoustic session locally, at the momment i'm mostly concentrating on making the greatest CD/Album i can, and its taking up all my time, so at the momment no, but it can be remedied
Your musical influences
Well at the momment i like the new aqualung cd, also the kings of leon CD is cool, erm my favourite CD of all time is ELO "out of the blue"
What equipment do you use?
Hush its a secret i cannot tell, does anyone really care?? if so let me know and i'll tell you
