Pascal Glanville

Pascal Glanville was drawn to music from a very early age, getting his first musical knowledge from playing the Piano, he soon moved onto the guitar and emerced himself in an eclectic mix of music from The Beatles to Bach. After years of performing, writing and recording with various artists he discovered The Chapman Stick, a 12-string Touchboard instrument invented in the early 1970's by Californian Emmett Chapman. With a range of 5 1/4 octaves and using the two handed tapping technique so that each hand can play independent bass, chords and melodies, a whole new direction was created that was later to include the electric bass. As well as a multi-instrumentalist, Pascal Glanville also produces, programmes and composes music in his studio.Pascal Glanville has worked with singer Pauline Taylor, completing a UK tour supporting the band Faithless and contributed acoustic guitar tracks to her debut album. Soon after he was asked to join the band Skinny, appearing in the video for the single 'Failure' as well as performing live.In the late '90's Pascal Glanville became a member of the band Stroke, touring North America/Canada and Europe as well as releasing a number of vinyl and c.d singles on XL records and the album 'First in,last out'. Other artists that he has worked with include Jimi Tenor, Nicole Willis, Heather Nova, Arkarna, Alexis Strum, Jakatta, Pete Townsend and 3rd Core.
