Robert Clarke

About Me

Rob plays guitar in popular South West Indie band Tremor [mspace.com/uktremor.] He also records ambient, dance/country blues stuff with Lil Mark Currell. This myspace page is for this stuff along with Tremor Demos and other weird stuff his bands don't wanna touch! When he has time he plays solo acoustic gigs, doing original material along with covers by his favorite artists such as 'Neil Young' 'Evan Dando' 'blur' and 'Nirvana' . Sighting The Breeders' 'POD' album as a massive influence, Rob likes to combine the LO FI guitar sounds whilst maintaining pop sensabilities. He swears by a quote from the great Don Letts..."A good idea attempted is better than a bad idea perfected" MyGen Profile Generator
