War Makes Heroes

About Me

War Makes Heroes is Charley Bickers & Paul Baird
'SOMEBODY SOMEWHERE' available from ITUNES and all digital providers NOW!!

Sometimes it feels as if 'Brave New World' had never been written!!! You docile, socially sedated, brain-washed, conformist, consumerist scum!!...'lying in the gutter, staring at stars!'

this video was shot whilst rehearsing & was written on the same day it was recorded. it's called 'Words Don't Fail Me Now'... It's definately a work in progress!

Influences: "To be a poet, to be an artist, meant more than writing or painting or singing; it meant having a vision and courage to see that vision through, despite any opposition. What didn't kill you made you stronger, and if you had what it took you were rare and wondrous, and if you didn't it couldn't be faked."
