About Me

Well.. this is the bit where I talk about my favourite singer/songwriter...ME!!
I play guitar and keyboards as well as main vocals in BLACKNAIL.
Before that I was in ELEMENT ONE TWELVE or E112 with VelveT GlooM and a guy called Riff, we were a 3 piece with 2 guitars, bass and a sequence. Whilst I loved this lineup , being outside the pub rock normality made it a little hard and we lost Riff to a few outside influences.
The best thing for me about Blacknail, is that I write and record a large range of other music from full electronic to acoustic guitar and voice only.
I will feature tracks that have not made it to Blacknail yet on this site, so don't expect the norm here..Enjoy!!,
I GET A NUMBER OF PEOPLE WITH THEIR UNWANTED OPINIONS SENDING ME IDEAS AND NOT TAKING NO FOR AN ANSWER. FOR ALL THOSE PEOPLE, AND YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE, HERE ARE SOME SIMPLE THINGS TO REMEMBER....
1 - I WON'T PLAY YOUR MUSIC, IF YOU WANT YOUR SONGS PLAYED, FORM A FUCKIN' BAND
2 - I WON'T PLAY YOUR INSTRUMENTS, I HAVE BEEN DOING THIS LONG ENOUGH THAT I HAVE AN EXCELLENT COLLECTION OF MY OWN, (SEE MY PICTURES)
3 - YOU SAY YOU HAVE AN OPINON OF HOW I SHOULD LOOK OR ACT ON STAGE??.. NEWS FLASH FUCKWIT!! NO-ONE CARES!!
4 - MY MUSIC, MY WAY - DEAL WITH IT!!
One last thing.... Stay Cruel!!
