Can't Let You Go

Julian Lines is a Guitarist / Songwriter from St Albans, UK.
He has been writing, producing and recording music for over 30 years and has formed and played guitar in several bands. 
Julian has been influenced by many bands over the years, he was heavily influenced by punk bands such as The Clash, The Buzzcocks, The Damned, SLF etc then a bit later post punk bands like The Icicle Works, The Psychedelic Furs, Blondie, Joy Divison and the great guitar sound of Johnny Marr and the Smiths. Not forgetting The Edge and U2.
His next major influence was the plethora of great 90’s bands such as Radiohead, The Stone Roses, The Charlatans, Oasis, Blur, Supergrass and New Order etc.  After that bands such as Editors, White Lies and The National also played their part in Julian’s song writing.  More recently bands such as Daughter, alt-J and Slowdive. 
So Julian’s sound has been crafted over many years but the sound is unmistakably Post punk, the tracks built around soaring guitar riffs.

Music is the universal language, and those who speak it fluently create new words for us all to use. 

Artists struggle at times to collaborate even if they know each other, but Tripoint area producer Max is taking those efforts to a new level. 
Under the project name XNM, uploads a number of raw files and unfinished ideas to Soundcloud and puts out an open invitation: 
Any and all musicians who are willing to add to the sounds can do so, even if they are complete strangers. 
The creations are compiled into a series of singles, with four installments being released thus far.
