Well here we go again its new album release time soon so I’m doing the usual online notifications. The album title WHILE YOU STILL CAN comes from one of my dads favourite expressions about ‘doing something useful while you still can’. Not that I think he would have liked it that much but he would have appreciated the effort! The record seemed to take on a few political themes as the writing moved forward, I guess I’ve been watching and … Read More >>
I’ve just done a couple of shows opening for the wonderful Wedding Present, at The Mars Bar here in Worcester and at Waterloo Music Bar in Blackpool, I’m pleased to say that both shows went well.

Pleased to announce the new Vinny Peculiar album ‘While You Still Can’ gets a heavy duty Vinyl release in October after some last minute procrastination its ready and in waiting to be heard. It comes with a download card so you won’t need to wear your stylus out! I’m really pleased with it, ten new songs, big noisy guitars, fatter drums and a harder rockier edge. Its an in part political in other parts scatological collection, song subject matter includes … Read More >>

I spent last week in Dave Drapers Pershore Studio fine tuning tweaking and mixing the new band album featuring former Parlour Flames musicians, it was good week, editing and reworking key parts. The band were present very much in terms of what we had on tape, but Che is away with Black Grape and Ollie with Nearly Dan so I’ve maintained the vigil with Dave and things are seriously getting there, we’ve mixed seven of the ten songs, three days … Read More >>
