Hi. My name is tommy. I have a three-year-old kid and a fancy leather jacket. I live in a house in belgium. I write pop songs about people i'm surrounded by.
Now once the word is spreading around, you don’t know how difficult it is to rise above popular misconceptions. There is a simple truth about GG, though, and you are about to find out. I started up GG in the summer of 2008 as a solo sound adventure. Clearly knowing where to begin, but not knowing exactly where to end, a number of songs simply came into life ... and took over.
None of these sounds would have ever made its way to your ears without the dedicated and highly appreciated effort of Ruben, who succeeded in reading a mind, capturing the right vibes at the right time and putting together a whole series of what I feel have become great tunes. The first release is a song called "My Life In Finland" and is available on iTunes right here There's an EP coming up near the end of this year. So now you know.
All songs so far were recorded and mixed in Brussels’ best kept secret on sunny and less sunny summer days in 2008.
Chris Brady, Bill Janovitz, Evan Dando, Charlie Campbell, Jarvis Cocker, Pjotr Fijalkowski, Richard Ashcroft, Kevin Shields and many others should be mentioned for making the best teachers of the 90s and for keeping me company on sunny and less sunny days in the past.
Thank you flowers, fans, family and friends for asking, then believing, halfway through insisting and eventually loving. No fancy list here. Special thanks to those of you that assisted me with publishing this sound story.
