One-Man Band Series

  • Currently I am hard at work on a number of different writing endeavors, especially my One-Man Band Series, which consists of feature articles on the artists, as well as interviews. So far I have published an introduction piece, an article/interview with Swiss gospel blues trash one-man act Reverend Beat-Man, and an article/interview with greasy Canadian rockabilly madman Bloodshot Bill. In the weeks to come, I will also make available articles/interviews on a number of other artists involved in the one-man band scene, such as Phillip Roebuck, Dead Elvis & His One Man Grave, Chuck Violence, Bud McMuffin, Al Foul, The Slow Poisoner, Mosquito Bandito, Skip Jensen & His Shakin' Feet, Rollie Tussing, and more. These pieces will be published at either The Urban Artist Group Magazine, The Philadelphia Examiner, No Depression, or Plug In Music Magazine, and in some cases all four.

    Canada's Bloodshot Bill shakes up the rock'n'roll underground

    An introduction to the one-man band movement


    Thank you all for your continued support. Without such interested and dedicated readers, I wouldn't be able to do what I do. And let's be perfectly clear why I do it.


    And these artists do what they do firstmost for the music, and secondly for the music enthusiasts who appreciate their songs. They know they are unmarketable and therefore on long, treacherous paths which lead away from the corporate empires of the mainstream and further into the heart of the underground. But that's where they belong. That's where I belong, too. And I hope we keep meeting along the way.
