Pop-up Acoustic + Band in London, EN

SEEKING

ABOUT

Last year we supported Martin Stephenson (singer/songwriter of the Daintees, and the album 'Boat to Bolivia') at the Hertford Corn Exchange, where he enthusiastically offered to produce some of our songs. He says 'they are lovely melodic songs, you are great songwriters'. He has produced some songs that we will use on our first album, which we are currently recording. Our favourite production of his is 'Waiting for the Sun', which is on this website of course.

We play original songs mainly, with the odd cover version adapted to our style. They are generally in the acoustic/pop/folk mode, with a bit of a groove. Songs about people and places - Holloway Road, Harlow Town, or Madrid or Medellin (in Colombia), and the people we know there.

Influences

People sometimes say the songs have a classic 60s pop feel to them. They are generally melodic, but we get a bit of a groove going live as well. Influences far and wide - 60s/70s/80s pop and rock.
