A friend is trying to make his way in the music business, acoustic singer songwriter style. A bit rough around the edges and sounds slicker in the studio but worth a listen. Any other exciting young prospects about?

He needs to chill out on the gurning. 🙂

Name change required too! 🙂

Good though.

How about me?

I play guitar in this song:

He sounds quite accomplished, hope he does well in a hugely competitive area. I might suggest that he gets out of the habit of looking at the camera/viewer so much. It’s a bit of a blank look, not very engaging. It may even work against him in that it creates an awkward relationship with the viewer/listener.

Technically: the camera operator needs to invest in an external mic. It would improve the audio quality considerably. A good performance like that is easy to record nowadays.

I’ll link this back to him, I guess he’s already aware of the ‘gurning’ but playing it to a camera must be a whole new skill.

YGH, like the tinnitus awareness link on the FB page 🙂

Chris Buck check him out on Youtube

This guy is some guitarist , a pleasure to listen to

This is what Charlie is like sans gurn and polished up a bit 😉

My mate’s band are doing something a bit different

Silhouttes

Yeah, we don’t take it too seriously

One of the better bands playing out of Bristol lately: Franklin Mint.

Gig at the Exchange, Sat 29/3, if the idea of Tool fronted by Bill Bailey sounds your sort of thing.

Edit: I just noticed that the OP is asking for exciting young prospects. It should be noted that this lot are more in the exciting immature lunatics category.
