pimp my hotpot

How do people keep up with all the online social sites these days? I almost forgot to blog on my own website!

I'm in the Chorlton Players' new show "Pimp My Hotpot" tonight and tomorrow night doing a bit of comedy and a bit of singing with my bandmate, John Beresford....(first live gigs!)

Tickets are £7.00 (and £5.00) and for that you get two and a bit hours of entertainment plus a healthy dose of meaty or veggie chilli!

Tickets available on the door or online from www.chorltonplayers.com

 

 

chorlton arts radio

The Chorlton Arts Festival is running an internet-based radio station during the festival, featuring music, plays and interviews.

Set up in a shop in Chorlton Precinct, the station is broadcasting a varied programme of music, chat and drama during the arts festival.

I'm appearing in several of the Afternoon Plays, in a variety of small and large roles. If you're interested, the one's I'm in most are:

"Reginald Fink" on Tuesday the 19th of May, and "The Early Bird Bunch" on Thursday 27th May.

Also, my radio play "The Hitch-Hiker" will be broadcast on Friday the 28th.

You can listen online on the Chorlton Arts Radio website.

These plays and others will be available for streaming from here soon after the end of the project.

 

new album

I've kinda forgotten about this site really, as I have been putting all my efforts into the Beresford and Wallace website.
The upshot is: We released the album!  Rather than duplicate everything here, I heartily encourage you to visit the website to have a browse, listen to the new tracks and generally have a play around...
Hey, we're even on iTunes these days... almost a real band!
 

second album recordings

Following a four year gap since the first album 'Suburban Nostalgia', I'm finally in the studio, recording vocals with John for the second album 'Weird and Wonderful', which should be out in the New Year - not in the shops, but, you know, just... out! :)
You can read more about that at the Beresford and Wallace website.

 

new studio equipment

For those of you who like that kind of thing, I'll tell you about my home studio, as it currently stands.
It is based around a high-spec Core2Duo PC with over 1Tb of storage, a Tascam FW1082 control surface/soundcard, two 19" widescreen monitors, and running professional multitrack recording and editing software. There's also a swathe of onboard VST instruments and effects, controlled by a MIDI master keyboard.

My studio room also contains my Yamaha DTX digital drumkit, Peavey International series bass, Behringer Strat copy, acoustic guitar, and Behringer large condenser microphone.
There's also a load of assorted hand percussion in a chest of drawers!

It can be used for recording solo, one instrument at a time, or with a couple of musicians simultaneously. It's not really geared up for a full band!

I'm also able to record and score radio drama and commercials here.
