Unpolished tunes (demos?) recorded on my kitchen table when I have the time and headspace. Nothing other than layered acoustic guitar and some reverb - I like it like that. I gave up my electrics and FX pedals long ago for a simpler acoustic life. I’ve played and recorded with Punk Rock and Indie bands, but my solo stuff has always had a kind of country/folk feel (don't know why) and/but nowadays I embrace that. I like to experiment with a mix of open and standard tunings to see what they bring, and occasionally something sticks.

Punk, Folk, Country, Psych - favourites are many and varied; J Spaceman, Pete Kember, William & Jim Reid, Anton Newcombe, Will Sergeant, Peter Hayes, Kim & Kelly Deal, Poison Ivy Rorschach, Syd Barrett, Ricky Wilson, Lou Reed, Sterling Morisson, Roky Erickson, Skip Spence, Ron Asheton, Steve Jones, Charlie Parr, Johnny Cash, Towns Van Zant, Doc Watson, Blind Blake, Mississippi John Hurt (and many others) have all messed with my head at one time or another. Artists I listen to and greatly admire, I sound nothing like any of them!

Lummox is my Number 8 of 2004. Most played on my i-pod too. Especially on long tube journeys when I've had to much red wine and I'm feeling wistful. ……..Gideon Coe BBCRadio6.

It's taken a further 10 years for idiot son to contemplate releasing the follow up.

It hurts.
