Never Let You Down - The New Vigos

NO MESSAGES ABOUT PROMOTIONS PLEASE!!!

Independent artist, writer, producer

In 1964, I remember watching "The Ed Sullivan Show" and seeing the Beatles perform live and they pretty much jump started my interest in music, Long hair, guitars and Beatle boots, very cool, still cool. I have always enjoyed good harmony parts and George's slide work has always inspired me. I started playing gigs in 1968,  I believe I was in the eight grade. It was only junior high school dances and sometimes house party's but at the time, it was electrifying. Over the years like so many others, I’ve played concerts, night clubs, special events, coffee houses, bars and such. Also toured the U.S. in 76. Now it's all about writing, recording, having some fun and being a part of the Sound Cloud community. Yeah man! 
Debut Album called “ Seafoam” released 2018 at Bandcamp, iTunes, Amazon and CD Baby.


Some of my fav producers would be Gary Katz, Jeff Lynne, Sir George Martin, Eddie Kramer and Mark Hudson. As far as guitar players, great hooks from Keith Richards, best tone Eric Clapton, best feel SRV! Best slide guitar George Harrison, Sonny Landreth, Derek Trucks and Ry Cooder. Most creative exploration Eric Johnson. The most original and always inspiring the GOAT Mr. Jeff Beck, he is amazing. Walter Becker had the cool factor and the Mu chords as well as wrote such interesting lyrics.

It is exciting, special and meaningful to create original music. If we don't create, then who will? We are the creators and we will continue to create innovative music that benefits and uplifts humanity. We must continue to create, evolve and revolutionize the world through music!

Songwriter, producer, musician from Hampshire, England.   

No AI generated music here - I play everything you hear (except drum / percussion sounds and loops).

My main projects are “The New Vigos” and "Conscience of Kings". 

Various other collaborations with amazing talented people who I've met along the way - love working with different collab partners (mainly singer / songwriters).

My passion / focus is on the musical composition, instrumentation, arrangement and production whilst my collaborative partners are normally focused on lyrics, vocal melodies and recording which I then incorporate in the mix and produce to completion / mastering.

Thanks for visiting and hope you hear something you like and enjoy

Thanks for visiting. This is a retro eclectic music mix with looming influences from among others Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Lou Reed & Jon Lord. Mostly I write about the human condition.

I am always looking for a guitar player that wants to collaborate. Would be fun to find a real drummer also.

A Gat is a cat in Catalan - it all makes sense if you’re me. The (s) stands for many collaborators.

I encourage everybody on SC to listen more and be less transactional.

Since 2020, I have been producing music with DAW software. I can play the guitar and bass, but I only use it a little to compose. Regardless of the genre, I hope you can experience the music that shakes your heart and enjoy what you create freely.
