About Me

I play solo at the moment but a band is in the pipeline.I'm looking for gigs pretty much anywhere i can so i can get moer opinions on my music and any advice on good or bad aspects of my songs.I've written a lot of new stuff over the last week or two- 3 additions which are "oh god","turn the page" and "blind humour" they still need alot of work but i'm well happy with how they're sounding-quite3 diverse and experimental compared to my older few songs-i'm playing my electric alot more on the new songs as well which is interesting. Had no luck getting the band together as the majority of people interested in joining were 80 year old guys into golden oldies which i wasn't convinced about to say the least.Right now i'm just going to see how i do with the solo stuff and if a band comes along then great: if not then i'm not too bothered really (because it's more than likely they'll just be a liability anyway!) January 27 Review-"Richard Cobb proved himself to be a true professional in the making. His first time at the Open Mic he overcame his nerves and soldiered on producing an entertaining set which promises much to come in the future. Next time he’ll know what to expect at the Open Mic (those of you who’ve been there, done that, know what I mean), and will let us hear more of his talent." courtesy of stooriefit.co.uk
