Default Izzy Plastic & The Manicans

so i went to berlin at the end of january. i met this random guy in the hostel. then when i moved back to london, he arrived here a day later, sent me a text. i was in a pub 5 minutes away from the station, so he got pissed with us all, and he stayed at ours. he's been sleeping on our couch ever since.

we spent 2 weeks drinking and somehow, we got some music out of it. now we're both back to work, and trying to work on the rest of our demos. we've got 2 up on our myspace so far though.

me=lyrics/beats/synths
him-guitars & vocals

it's rather fun times

we've just been added to www.strummerville.com

Strummerville is a charity set up to help out up and coming unsigned bands. it's an invite only site, which means i'm rather excited to have made it onto it. the very amazing Bill Coleman is also featured on it, and had been in the top 10 downloaded artists till recently. there's a host of great bands on there actually, and all have a free download available. take a look and enjoy!

I never saw this before, and I can't listen now while I'm at work - will try to make sure to give you guys a listen this afternoon!

i've been hearing some amazing things about this website...so many stories of bands featuring there and going on to more success...i'm still shocked we've made it onto it already..we've barely been together 4 months!
