Bio
I am a practicing artist and a writer, I also sing and play guitar for mutant/psyche rockers ‘Long Bone Trio’. Our first single release (Fathead/Oscar flies in the Face of Reason) is available on limited 7” vinyl and our debut album (Chainey Pieces) is out on CD and itunes – so go check us out!
Long Bone Trio were formed by three chaps with a pedigree in underground UK music. Gary O'Connor played in the legendary 13th Chime: a relatively unknown band but loved by all who knew them. Robin Taylor came from Fire Department, a band who released some fine English psychedelia and Dave Middle played with Giantene who had a fine body of songs but never realised their full potential.
Oscar Flies in the Face of Reason / Fat Head, their first 7" black vinyl record, sees Long Bone Trio paying as much attention to atmosphere as to songwriting quality, and this approach makes the record a rare stand out success. Anyone who's heard 13th Chime will see the link. This is a band that's using the studio to enhance and compliment its sound, instead of utilising that crisp clinical production we so often hear. Chainey Pieces, their debut CD album is now available.
Chainey Pieces is one of today’s secrets: a film soundtrack waiting for the film, but these chaps are not doing things by halves. The songs is the foundation, the sound is built on top. This album is about atmospheres, darkness, etc, and it deserves the time it requires. Comparisons are lazy, but if you think of what Gallon Drunk were at the outset, you’re on the right track. It’s noisy but it’s rocking too.
