Zouch - Suddenly (album preview)

This is my first album release, which is available on iTunes right now. The images you see are various paintings of mine.



Visit the new Zouch blog, too!

McCarthy (and me)

Here's a video (sort of) that I put together using the lyrics and cover from the cassette of this album. I'd posted some McCarthy songs before but thought I'd show you this too. It has lyrics that are very relevant to society today even though it was released in 1990.



And this is another of my songs, an instrumental, with a simple video to accompany it on YT.
I'd appreciate any comments and ratings to be left on the YouTube pages. Cheers.

Number One Cup

This is the name of a fairly short lived band from Chicago. They were active between 1993 and 1999. The only song I knew of theirs was Divebomb, which is a great indie-pop number that would go down well at any good indie disco. I'd recommend them if you're into The Breeders, Pavement or The Flaming Lips.
As my account with fileden has reached the limit again and the other site I use for individual songs is not loading, I can point you to another web page which has links to the song mentioned as well as a few other tracks by them.

So click this and you can check them out. It's actually a page from the singer's website, which has more music and art to look through.

Also, here's a film I made with my girlfriend doing the filming. It's based on a poem by Jacques Prévert which I wrote some music for and made into the song.

Zouch - Tangled Up

An acoustic, bluesy type number from the "Suddenly" album, 2007.

Zouch - Snooze

A song I wrote in summer 2007. A little indie-pop number.

You've made another site?!

Yes, another. Anyone who's known about this site for some time will be aware that I keep polluting the networks with things I come up with and this time I've made a site to share my own music. I've been writing for almost 20 years but never released anything so I thought I should let people hear what I do rather than just listen to it myself! There are some paintings to see, too!

So, come along and visit Zouch and hopefully, some of you will give me a bit of feedback.

Zouch - Suddenly (album)

O.k. a slight deviation from the R.I.C theme. Last week, I had an idea to try to write and record a complete album in a week. I've been writing songs since 1989 for bands and for myself so I wanted to see if I could do something decent very quickly. I've uploaded the songs to my ReverbNation page. The songs are in a kind of indie-pop style.
You can see more info on the project there and listen to the songs (also on the player below). I'd appreciate it if you let me know what you think.
