THE STEED REVOLUTION(THE SAVIOUR OF GOOD SYNTHPOP)

About Me

I was born in Sutton Coldfield,Birmingham in 1978 and grew up in Tamworth,Staffordshire. I started school at Lakeside Primary in January 1984 where I became one of the most ambitious,intelligent pupils there.Not to mention the most charasmatic and enigmatic! The moment I first started coming first in tests and long distance races here it changed my ambition and passion in life,so much so that I now always strive to go to the top at everything I do. I first discovered I had great passion for music when I first saw the film 'The Commitments' when it had it's first televised broadcast back in 1994. I can remember going to school the next day where I tried to get a soul band set up!!lol My dream would be to GET SIGNED UP AND REVOLUTIONISE POP FOREVER AND ERADICATE MANUFACTURED POP FROM OUR MUSIC INDUSTRY!!!!This is the STEED REVOLUTION!!!
