Sounds Like: Varies from classic Britpop. To garage rock to folk. Psyche to pop. Punk to soul and of course the singersongwriter style. I like alot of classic Songwriting e.g. Marley, Drake, Lennon and Porter. It's fun to mix genres rather than have a particular sound that way I hope to create a genre or be part of a new genre which is one of my ultimate goals. Until then I like to think I'm part of a NEW GENRE called "ACOUSTIC PUNK" as created by Heath - check myspace. I like a bit of spacefolk!!!
