Ahoy hoy. I'm Captain of the Rant - known to friends and other people who knew me before I became Captain of the Rant as Paul Case. A blunt, intelligent and witty socially consious storyteller and performance poet, coming from the DIY punk scene because that's where pretty much all the really great, angry and heart (but not global) warming stuff happens. I think personal politics - with its passionate mess of flaws and contradictions - are the most geniune and it's that often massive gap between ideal and individual action that I want to explore with my work.
I'll play just about anywhere, so have a listen to my stuff and just drop me a line if you want to book me.
I also co-run and host a cracking night of acoustic punk, folk, ska, punk poetry and political stand up called OUT OF STEP. This can be found at http://www.myspace.com/outofstepmusicnight . It's been lovely running it, and we've been fortunate enough to host a massive variety of awesome acts all under the banner of diy culture. The next one is here, come on down!
In the mean time, chin up, and don't let the bastards grind you down.
