BUBBLEGUM SUMMER HAS CHANGED IT'S NAME TO STARSHY!!. Twee in spirit but slightly twisted in reality, Starshy loves indie pop. Songs added here will either be 1st or 2nd takes. Each songs is written, recorded and uploaded within a day - some within a matter of hours. Starshy is not one dimensional so, while it may favour twee and indie pop, it takes the opportunity to wander wherever it feels most comfortable be that: punk, country, rock, indie, world etc., etc. Unfortunately, I don't think Starshy sounds like any of the influences on this page but it would be interesting to hear your thoughts? Oh...Starshy has launched it's own record label Bubblegum Records (www.myspace/bubblegumrecordsscotland) or www.bubblegumrecords.org.uk Look out for upcoming releases. Sunshine Smiles from Starshy.A SHORT FILM ABOUT THE DENIED, IMPRISONED, EXILED AND MURDERED GAY MEN OF WORLD WAR TWO. IT'S A GOOD COMPANION TO HOLOCUAST NANCY. THE MUSIC IN THE FILM IS NOT STARSHY.
