The Misers - Album Out NOW!!

About Me


------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------
The Misers are a band from England consisting of singer/songwriter Neil Ivison and Hammond/Rhodes player Adam Barry.
Born and raised in Herefordshire, Neil is blessed with a soulful, passionate voice and the gift of being able to tell a story in a song. Along with Adam, The Misers delivers them in a unique style that draws inspiration from The Rolling Stones and Creedence Clearwater Revival.
The Misers specialise in the truth. Songs about friends, drinking, brushes with the law, love, broken relationships, fights, jobs. Real songs about rural life and country people played in a simple, direct and honest way.
The Misers debut album 'Amplified Life Stories', recorded at Rockfield Studios with producers Ian Morgan & Tom Oliver (Proclaimers, It Bites, Roy Harper) and engineered by Matt Butler (Paul McCartney, Johnny Cash, Mick Jagger) is a concise and focused collection of 10 unadorned gems, mixing Soul, Americana and Folk, drawing comparisons with Ryan Adams and The Band.
"Amplified Life Stories” was released on 1st June 2009
June 2009
