About Me

******************************
I am DaDa HOLLywOOd** a collective of music, writing and art!
(***) I sticker london with my illustrations!!!
(***) I sing/write/play music-so I make experimental noise when I have spare time.
(***) I promote and organise a night that was once regular @The Pool, curtain road EC2 London (now defunked--bye bye) called 'Rock n roll aint noise pollution' and PLAYED at our last show Aug 8th with Simon from Smallgang. The nights may re-emmerge in one form or another eventually, meanwhile for good nights check out my friends at 'Hooked up Records' they put on a bunch of shows..
(***)Im doing an Art & Design Foundation Diploma at Metropolitain University.
(***)In march I finished a 'Digital Video' course at the Film and Video Workshop, view my camera, script and editing efforts (oh, and acting)!

Type in Tea2Kill for other edits.
(***) I paint and make slightly mad pictures on canvas and card and incorporate cut & paste, collage, sketches and like bright messy paint styles...
(***) I take photos of just about everything i think is colourful, cool, intreeguing or beautiful as I like to .. as well as capture the aesthetic of an occasion. You can see in my slideshow below a bunch of photos taken by me.
(***) I like to shop for vintage clothes and random pop artefacts. Im addicted to buying vinyl and dodgy arthouse films off ebay @%£$*, I love going to gigs and travelling and I like to meet new people who I might share things in common with. So do drop me a line--->
