About Me

I became an acoustic/solo artist by accident after leaving a band and deciding to start writing songs on my own, but after writing so many songs i was unable to find the right band mates who i wanted to spend time with and or who shared the same vision as me. So i decided to go it alone. the songs are all about personal experiences or stories about things that have happened around me, they are not the most uplifting songs but i write about real life and that isnt always a bed of roses is it ?, i think everyone can relate to my lyrics with one or more experiences that has happened in their lives, my songs are more lyrically based rather than writing a great riff and then singing about the love of my life i try and keep it as raw and honest as i possibly dare. hope you listen and appreciate the lyrics and give them a chance, thats good enough for me, cheers.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 01/11/2007
Band Members: sam johnson
Influences: My main influences are probably my family and life experiances so far rather than actual songs or songwriters, but bands i listen to are wide and varied from donovan, nick drake, lennon, stephen fretwell, mathew jay, elliott smith, robin hitchcock to sick of it all, downset, rage against the machine, helmet, smoking popes, nofx and absolutely everything in between.
Sounds Like: i would probably say i was an acoustic grunge artist as my lyrics are quite deep and dark but without the feedback and distorted guitar sound, but will leave you with the same feelings as if you had just listened to alice in chains.
Record Label: Unsigned
