Lee Mitchell
www.myspace.com/whoisleemitchell Lee Mitchell presents a compelling approach to acoustic songwriting. Creating an attractive and memorable sound that leaves you in a deep reflective state, this fresh and innovative artist shall leave you whistling a different tune. David Celia www.myspace.com/davidcelia Introducing David Celia, based out of Toronto, Canada - a world class musician who has played for audiences all over the Europe, USA and Canada. With regards to his musical style, it has been described as "roots-rock with hints of folk wrapped up in a pop package". Flawless 3 and 4 part harmonies are usually the first thing that audiences are drawn to in the live set but ultimately it's the songwriting that gives the music a timeless feel. Peter Wyeth www.myspace.com/peterwyeth I make noises with acoustic instruments and sounds. Sing songs with them. Take rubbish photos that I like. Love riding bicycles. Love stereo recording. Hate mixing. Play in made up tunings. Sing songs to the night, the sky, the birds. |
