Hi - hope you like the music on the player (I've just rejigged it so that has reset the play count). It contains tracks from my debut solo album, 'Tell the Truth', as well as some new lowish-fi live tracks from the Analogue Club, and a demo or two. The album is released on the Inshore Madman label and is available on iTunes and at www.simonhardeman.com .
It features songs The Independent described as “original, intelligent musicâ€, and made a Critic’s Choice Download. All are based around voice and guitar, with bass and drums, but no keyboard or synthesiser – except for a battered Sixties-vintage Stylophone. The tracks are all written, played, and produced by me, with the exception of bass on "If You Ever Change" (Simon Littlefield) and additional drums on the same song (Nigel Summerley).
