About Me

Harry Cheesman is a nice man from Deptford and these are some of his songs. If you like them please tell everyone you know, and bring them all down to one of his gigs. He'll be very pleased to see you, and will pat you on the back for being such a good egg. He is only trying his best after all.This was recently said about Harry Cheesman..."The best one was Harry Cheeseman, who had a shaky start but not only writes really good songs (they sort of reminded me of the Monochrome Set but with less arty lyrics) but has an incredible voice that probably has Elvis turning in his grave. Huge, deep, powerful and very mature for a young chap. Luckily, he didn't make any attempt to look like Elvis, because he had long hair. But if I was a nice record company (they don't exist, unfortunately), I'd give him an island in Scotland and tell him to go off there and write 15 albums. I was very surprised to see someone so much a cut above the normal singer/songwritery person on a Tuesday night in King's Cross. very rough around the edges, but very good."
