Pre-Order CD (UK only for now)

Well you asked and waited. And here you go. My debut album 'Loading...' will be RELEASED on Friday 19th December 2025 on all major providers and CD!
I'm psyched to finally be in a position to get this album out of my system into your ears. It's a maximalist, kitchen-sink explosion - chaotic power-pop stitched from baroque'n'roll, snarky Mercurial harmonies, overdriven jazz-funk, and cabaret doom metal, recorded throughout the course of my formative musical years.
You've heard the singles - Clone Zone, Another Guy, Out Of Hand. I'm fearful to say they barely scratch the surface!!
All songs written, arranged, performed, produced, and abandoned by me - except for Andy Furmage as John Entwistle and Reinhold Mack on one, and Nathan Persad as Bobby Elliott on another.
Mastered by Dan Cooper. Artwork photography and direction by Reece Bailey. Attire courtesy of Nathan Persad, Paul McCartney, Nancy Gorman & Grant Judges.
We'll be celebrating with a live show on the evening of the launch, at my second home The Iron Horse in Sidcup, where I will reveal to you THE BAND!!
Again sorry for my radio silence. I've been put off socials by people arguing about stuff they'll never agree about on posts generated by robots. But how's this for a comeback! Something to unite you all, even if it's "is he okay?" after hearing it.
Pre-save on Spotify and pre-order the CD (UK only for now) today, link in comments. Thank you all for waiting and bugging me it's actually kinda life-affirming. I look forward to existing x

CLONE ZONE OUT NOW!
Released Friday 20th September 2024 on all major providers including Spotify,
BandCamp, Apple Music, Tidal and YouTube​
​
"JAZZY, FUNKY, THEATRICAL ROCK: A pocket groove, a choir of Tom Monkses lyrically provoked by parkas, and the most DISGUSTING Minimoog solo in the world"
​​
Written, recorded, produced and performed entirely by myself, Clone Zone is the final single release before the unveiling of my unfathomably highly anticipated debut solo album, 'Loading', with a supergroup live spectacle to boot.
​
Armed with witty lyrics poking fun at ultra-competitive creatives who emulate stock figures instead of embracing their unique selves, Clone Zone offers playful, bold, and self-deprecating observations of a desperation for individuality in a world accustomed to nostalgic regurgitation.
​
Huge huge thanks to Dan Cooper for mastering it and making it sound humongous, and Reece Bailey for the artwork photography and design making me look beautiful.

ANOTHER GUY
Released Friday 2nd April 2021 on all major providers including Spotify, BandCamp, Apple Music, Tidal and YouTube​
​
'Another Guy' gleefully and bluntly tackles the common crisis of desperately persuading a pal to take off the premature rose-tinted glasses and stop the inevitable, in the form of upbeat, whimsical rock & roll.
A sonic throwback to Merseybeat, Another Guy is complete with jangly guitars, Mellotron rhythms, Hofner bass, Farfisas, and rich harmonies - intricately jam-packed into two and a half minutes of plot twists and radical left turns.
INTERMISSION
Here's a (currently) video exclusive segment from the record, about folk losing their minds to the internet and all their loved ones cos of it. We've all seen it especially since the start of this decade.
​
Filmed remotely for my appearance on Uncaged TV in Spring 2021 with the help of Nancy Gorman, in between the reopening of the barbers and the rest of the UK.
OUT OF HAND
Released Friday 8th February 2019 on all major providers including Spotify, BandCamp, Apple Music, Tidal and YouTube
​
In late 2018 (I looked older when I was younger), I completed the first full song that I didn't disown. The penny dropped that songwriting is a billion times easier if you have a concrete subject to write about - something that resonates with or riles you up so much that situations flow out into words, and all you need to do is make it scan.
​
So, artistic communities are one of few circles where it's acceptable to be "different", myself included. It's mostly a wonderful thing, but also a double edged sword because it can attract the deluded, demanding, and/or downright nasty, who are either unaware of or content with being so. At the time I wrote this song, our local scene had an influx of them (thankfully transiently so, albeit mostly with spectacular bangs)!
​
Being the host of a particularly popular event, the role of mediator or pacifier was always placed on me by default, mostly by people decades older than me. Some events ended up like Jeremy Kyle. It started affecting my brain to the extent of medication. I couldn't take any more of it. So I lit the creative fire with it, which has burned ever since.
​
Featuring the glorious Nathan Persad on drums, and hundreds of Sidcup's locale on backing vocals. The mix is primitive and has been revisited for the upcoming album - the song and the take remains the same.
