This Beautiful Hunger

About Me

I've been writing vocal parts to songs for the past three years (owning no instruments except for a guitar I couldn't play). Then I bought a second-hand Eighties' Yamaha keyboard, complete with an intriguing selection of Synth sounds. From there I wrote and recorded a collection of songs.I met Laurence in Autumn of last year. He plays guitar, sings like an angel and wears a dashing Tweed suit. From there, This Beautiful Hunger was born.Laurence left the band this summer, so I am currently looking for other musicians with similar creative vision to join the band, particularly guitarists, pianists and vocalists, but also instrumentalists of any kind - harpists, violinists, banjo players, xylophonists, whistlers, theremin players etc. Though she's served me well, my Yamaha keyboard, bless her, is limited in what she can produce musically, particularly live.I'm just in the middle of recording a new bunch of songs at home.
