Neil Searle is a UK-based singer-songwriter whose music blends classic melodies with thoughtful, lyrical storytelling. Influenced by the timeless sounds of The Beatles and David Bowie, his songs often explore themes of memory, space, and human connection. With a love for the planets, moons, and stars, Neil brings a reflective, sometimes otherworldly quality to his songwriting—creating music that feels both nostalgic and fresh.

Expression thru chance/Surrender to chance/Play the dice man roll your own questions on any street corner/Play safe only when it is dangerous to do so/Rip up all your tomorrows throw the pieces into the air/Let them flow follow the heart.  
Tuned for more exciting news...

 "David is a great post-protopunk-singer/songwriter-with a dash of industrial-upper-Midwest-infused-drum-machined-mayhem-but-with-soul."  DJ Paul Critz, KFUG Radio. 

Songwriters who have that way with words, that ability to make any phrase sound like rock 'n' roll, they're always interesting, no matter what they're saying or what key it's being said in.  David Stephenson has it!

Songs: We find them unpainted in our hands, throw them up into the air of our imagination, turning them in the colours we see after we close our eyes until they feel just right, and sometimes we catch them perfectly, without blemishing them...

My music is on most platforms for your ease.

Wow!!  417K+ plays and 4,000+ valued followers and friends on SC alone, that provide lots of wonderfully helpful comments that fuel the next track! Really big thanks to the SC community for listening and providing such brilliant feedback and support. It means so much to myself and my collaborators - huge thanks.

I work in different styles, as the inspiration, dreams or bubonic plagiarism comes! I use Logic Pro X on Mac.
 
I write, produce and play all my own stuff (unless otherwise stated), play vintage Tokai Strats mainly, PRS Torero, Steinberger, Gretsch G2627T, Classical, Fender Dreadnought, Yamaha and Rickenbacker basses, keyboards and sax. I use Native Instrument's Komplete, Omnisphere 2 and my own organic samples.

I mix on Sennheiser HD 280 Pro's and HD 650's (closed and open headphones) when not making a bigger noise through my Yamaha HS8 studio monitors. I use Focusrite Clarett 2Pre ThunderBolt and Apogee audio interfaces, Neumann & iSK condenser & AKG dynamic mics. 

Hardware: Feb 1978 Marshall JMP 50W Combo, BOO & BOSS stomps

I love collaborating with other musicians and will compose with, play guitar for, produce, arrange, master or even just hum along with other SC musicians. Please ask!
