Drunk Instead - Full Track

Recorded at Blue Bunker Studios in Hertfordshire, this is the first solo effort from UK Musician Richard Groves. Having played all over England in bands, he broke from this and went travelling for a year during which he wrote a wealth of solo material. Armed with this he is embarking on a new journey to New Zealand where he will be gigging around the country for a year.

01 Wise Up

I make music. Sometimes it's thoughtful, sometimes it's funny, sometimes it's groovy. I make it mostly with my acoustic guitar, a loopstation and my mouth. I occasionally coerce good friends who can play instruments better than I to record things like drums and bass on my records. This gives them a little depth and makes me look way better than I am. Having been a singer and a drummer from an early age, I try and base my music around interesting rhythms and catchy melodies. Using a loop station means I can provide percussion, guitar and harmony live. Some of my songs are driving and energetic, some are calm and peaceful. Some are epic, layered vocal landscapes of harmony and intricate guitar work with lyrics reminding us to never forget those who helped us get to where we are, one is about getting drunk and sleeping through my alarm. Check out my website for more info, yeah? :)
