The Shooting Of

The Shooting Of... I write alternative pop music with no agenda other than writing the kind of songs/making the kind of sounds that I long to hear myself. I transfer what I create in the studio to the live stage by using beaters played with my feet for kick drum, snare drum and tambourine whilst triggering samples, playing keys or guitar and a using a copperphone microphone along with a regular one to vary vocal delivery. and what others have said:- "Possesed of a quirky showmanship that nestles somewhere between Ben Folds and David Bowie ...he delivers his songs with genuine heartiness" Stool Pigeon "Bursting with ideas, a songwriter of exquisite ability, tone and range" NME "Jaunty piano, toe-tapping beats and an exquisite voice: it's a welcome break from the traditional singer-songwriter fare. A definite one to watch - in every way." DROWNED IN SOUND "A veritable musical octapus" Stephen Merchant - BBC 6 Music www.theshootingof.com One man with a piano, sometimes a guitar as well as a little bit of drums and other instruments
