About Me

Hello there everyone...

You may have forgot we existed recently, or if you do remember - probably recall that we promised a third EP back when you still collected water from a hole in your garden... alas, the wait is over! We've finally completed our third offering titled 'Happy To Be Happening'.

It signals a close to the current chapter of A Certain Type of Person. Despite having two great years with it, we're all taking our foot off the pedal (for a little while) and standing back to observe what else there is to do in Barnsley... hmmm...!

As a thank you to everyone, you can download the third EP for absolutely nothing, by following the following link...

http://www.actop.co.uk/happy.htm

There's a little message on the download page to say 'thank you', so I won't wear the sentiment in to the ground. However, we really do appreciate all the help and support we've been given since we started up, and it's important to note that this isn't 'the end' necessarily, just a holiday with no confirmed return flight.

Hope you like the EP, please do stop by our website (http://www.actop.co.uk) or leave us a message on here to let us know what you thought of our efforts.

Take care of yourselves. See you soon.

Adam, Russ, Rob, Dave, Hayley & Lee xxx

BIOG:

A Certain Type of Person is the offspring of Adam Myers, Russell Calverley and Rob Lewchenko - now a six-piece band, ACTOP have recently completed their 3rd EP entitled 'Happy To Be Happening'.

Genre's are a funny thing, but if we had to specify one, it would have plenty of "/"'s in it, and go something like this...

Folk/Indie/Pop/Ambient
...it's probably better if you listen to a couple of our songs and get the drift - if you like what you hear please pop along to our official website at www.actop.co.uk and leave us a message... or leave one here, either way :)
