King Standing

Half eaten by bears aged 2 life began shakily for our hero and those first school years were even tougher. However, when surgeons reattached his arms and removed the right side of his brain 10 years later in a 5 minute operation, the songs came easy. Being from humble up-bringings it was left to friends and family to gamely go on the game to raise funds for that first acoustic guitar. But with this heightened love of music rapidly turning to unhealthy obsession, academic skills taking a decidedly downward turn and the loss of friends and family for asking them to gamely go on the game again to buy a guitar that stays in tune it seemed, worryingly that old blanket of misfortune had descended for good upon this luckless loser. That indeed is the case. Unemployable but for the most menial tasks these songs were recorded live inbetween shifts slopping out the bear pit of London Zoo.Bursting with wry sonnets and bittersweet ditties, debut album FIRST AID FOR BEGINNERS is in production and scheduled for release.. very quietly.. like a smelly fart.. in a posh restaurant.. as soon as the place fills up a bit.This profile was edited with The CricketSoda Myspace Editor
