Note To Self

If I was a wave, I'd fall asleep on your shore

About Me

‘Note-To-Self’ is really just one guy, (which is me), with one guitar, and a violin. The songs were recorded a while back in my bedroom using a clip-on ‘tie’ microphone which I clipped on to a wine glass, which in turn stood on a number of books, which in turn were piled on my desk, which was on the floor. This explains the slightly ropey quality of the recordings. Since setting up this myspace page I've done quite a few gigs, which I hadn't actually thought I would when I started ... but if someone would like me to play somewhere or other, then I will, so you just need to ask. I’ve done a lot of gigs with other people and recorded with them in my capacity as a fiddle/violin player. I’m very fortunate that I have quite a few friends who also happen to be very good musicians and let me join them. In some cases, they were friends first and the music came later, and in other cases the music came first, and we became friends through that. I’ve been fortunate enough to be both friends and play music in a violining capacity with John & Luke (aka Nizlopi), and with Merrick Angle as ‘The Invincibles’, Jamie McDonald, Rosalind, Coralie and Gary Stewart, Finn Daniel, Hush The Many, Jont, Kid Harpoon, Bobby Cook, Larrikin Love, The Pan I Am recordings and recently played on a Babyshambles remix wattsit madooooda of 'delivery' and with Drew McConnells 'side project' ... Helsinki.

The songs are now LOUDER

On Saturday ... James Vyner very kindly took my songs and squeezed them, shaped them, cajouled them, EQ'ed them, tried to minmize the hiss, made them louder and things like that ... and explained via ...
