About Me

Graham Burgess out of Twinmaker says: "Please visit the website listed on the right ( http://bands.kmfm.co.uk/band.aspx?id=460 ) and vote for my song "Dungeness" (it's really very good). That way I might get played on the radio which would be fabulous. Thank you." ************************************************************ ** ************************************************************ ** ************************************************************ ** ************************************************************ ** ************************************************************ ** Graham Burgess was in a band called Three Litre but he moved to Capel-le-Ferne in Kent and had some children in pairs. Despite local success with The Litre in reading, Berkshire (including 2 singles that were played on BBC national radio, favourable reviews in major press, blah blah) Graham decided it was too far to go anymore and called time on Three Litre. He now makes music in his spare room (using an old Tascam 8 track cassette recorded, a guitar he bought off ebay for £50 and a keyboard bought for him by an insurance company after some smackhead broke into his old house in Reading and nicked the previous keyboard what he'd bought from Toys 'r' us) while the girls sleep next door. Initially, most of his canon is re-workings of old songs previously performed in other bands but, as his muse allows, new material will be written and recorded.

Hello, everyone, It's been a while hasn't it? No bad thing, I reckon. Musically Twinmaker has been "shy" but, what's this? An enquiry from an associate has spurred the creative loins into action and t...

Twinmaker's second blog

Hello ladies and boys, I did get 'round to using my new Zoom palmtop 4 track. It was quite easy but to be honest I did just (deliberately!) do a simple guitar & (double-tracked) voice thing. I hav...
