WELCOME TO THE PARTY ...

Crafty powerpop and alternative rock song-stories for grown-ups. No songs about dancing, drugs or teenage angst here... You'll probably recognise people you know in the lyrics. Reassuringly accessible but with an edge like bitter chocolate.

Like Ian Dury fronting the Byrds. Like XTC covering Chas'n'Dave. Like Martin Newell joining Madness. Like Kirsty MacColl if she was a bloke from Essex. Like skimming across a pond on a sunny day in an old fashioned rowing boat, dangling your fingers in the water and unexpectedly having one of them bitten off by something just below the surface.
