About Me

ALBUM NOW AVAILABLE AS INSTANT MP3 DOWNLOAD:
Sol Philcox: 18 years old. born 22nd january 1990 in devon somewhere. now live in north walsham, norfolk; home of the sketpark, 'kelly's plaice' chip shop, club KA niteclub and shop assistants being stabbed in the face on saturday mornings.
i'm a musician by the way, i play in a pop punk band, an experimental grindcore band, a blues band, a skiffle band and occasionally a jazz band. all because i can, and because i love every second of it.
being a musician is not all who i am. if you know me, make your own mind up about who i am and if you don't know me then you should.
i will do anything for my friends.
if i like you i will do anything to make the world a better place for you.
been playing guitar seriously for over 3 years. Brent Mason is my biggest musical hero. i don't really listen to much music. i want to live in Nashville, tennesee. english music is generally shit. i write songs all the time and play them in CBM (see below). i have lived with my mum all my life. i have a dog. i have lots of different sets of friends who i do different things with. i keep myself open to new ideas all the time. i have insomnia. i can't concentrate on television or movies long enough to finish them. there are very few musicians i don't respect. my opinions are always right no matter what. i talk too much. i am never ever boring in any situation.
