One Last Look Back

Sooo The Good Ship gig is this week!  The first Web Sheldon gig of the year.  A year that I am determined is going to be the best year of my musical life so far!

It feels strange when I think that this was meant to be a Bilamie gig, one that we were massively looking forward to as well.  All those plans, all that hope, all that magic...

We did have a lot of hope for Bilamie.  We had a lot of energy but sadly we didn't use that energy for own benefit.

But now, I take the pieces of that hope and I re-build them into a firmer foundation, I learn some lessons, and I bounce back stronger than ever.

No 'crying over spilt milk'.  Life is too short.

So... onwards with 2015.

Let's GO!!!

New Collaborations

Last week was an interesting week!

My band broke up...which meant a massive shift in priority from working on Bilamie plans to moving 100% on to my solo work - which means there is now a lot to do to feel I'm at the same position as what we were at with Bilamie.  I'd started my solo plan just a few weeks before Bilamie first got together back in August 2013 so it was a tough decision at the time, whether to drop everything and start the band. Everything is a learning experience though and we made a great album and had some biiig laughs along the way.  But now, that's the plan from now onwards - Web Sheldon! Yeahhhhhh!

On the none-music side, I'm currently looking for a contracting job for my IT work (PR campaigns and CD pressing will need funding somehow...lol) and looking for a new place to live as well...so I'm keeping myself busy as always.

I have a new promo pic for the next few months until the EP promo starts and some shiny new flyers/business cards to match.  Thanks to Alex Machon for the art work! :)

In other news, I'm working on a new song with Hipnotic Jazz, Sycho Gast, Gramafonia and M.O.N.G.R.E.L - there's going to be singing, rapping and amazing production and from what I've heard so far, it's going to be immense. Very excited about this.

It looks like my main man Priveyt might be having a guest spot on my new EP.  He featured on a Bilamie song called Dead & Walking (which was planned to be a single before the band got divorced!) and he did a stellar job!

So in terms of the EP, I have 2 songs now finished; these are called Wolves 'n The Viiibes and Purple Steeple (recorded earlier in the year and re-mastered for the EP). This week, I'm working on the next 2 tracks! The general theme for the EP is about positive thinking; taking a long hard look at ourselves and taking responsibility for our own lives.

Before I go, check out the new song from Priveyt, gives me shivers in my bonnnnnes!

Just uploaded Purple Steeple and P's & Q's to BBC Introducing

Lucy Mac
"Up and coming Singer-songwriter from Kent known for her catchy melodies and everyday lyrics on life and love."
I enjoyed listening to this track below, its poppy, catchy and effortless - the lyrics make you feel like you're having a conversation with her.  Nice touch.

Web Sheldon
Since you're reading this, you might know me already! But if not...
"London Electronic Artist & Producer - Harmonising on the Lust For Life."

Of Embla
"Inspired by Scandinavian folk and jazz, creating an alternative reality through entrancing stories."
I'm very excited to see Of Embla.  I'm a massive jazz fan and her music combines jazz and folk with a modern twist. I found it hard to choose one song to post, but here's my favourite...

Lily McKenzie
"Singer-songwriter, pianist and producer who has featured on records with artists such as Falty DL, Wiley and Breakage - performing tracks from her first solo Electronic Soul EP 'Support Machine'."
Her voice matches perfectly with this kind of electronic music, amazing production as well. Can't wait to see her perform on the night. Check out the debut EP here.

Farewell to Bilamie

Sad news as of yesterday... Beth and I have decided not to continue with Bilamie any longer.

We want to thank everyone who has come to our gigs and supported us over the last year.

On the plus side - we finished our album and will release it digitally at some point in the future :)

We had a couple of gigs booked; the first was at The Good Ship in Kilburn on 22nd January and the other gig was at Dublin Castle in Camden on 4th February - I will be replacing Bilamie with a solo set at these gigs.

I've added links to our solo/personal websites below :)
