The self-styled solo singer/songwriter IS GNARLING HIS WAY to the creation of a new acoustic genre on the back of artist-led foot thumping commercial chorus chants, nastily clever lyrics and seriously infectious hooks.
A live performance entrenched in heart, mind, body & soul commitment to the cause is enthralling at least, mesmerising at best. Fury, angst, love, desire and loss are the tools but the craft is in the vitalised emotive delivery which challenges the audience to feel what he feels....this, is the connection, which sets him apart.
Already a well respected Paisley performer, Alan is now being taken as seriously as befits his talent and has recently signed a publishing deal with Nettwerk One Music Ltd.

As you may have noticed, I had to remove the demo recordings I made in London a while ago from my Bebo. This was due to legalities concerning the producer who recorded the tracks. It was a shame however I have re-recorded them live in my living room just to get something up just now. Hope you like them!
CAFÉ BORGIA, 25 New Street, Paisley, Scotland. PA1 5PP

My big brother got me listening to your songs a while ago and I've always really liked the song Colours, especially that specific lyric.
I'd quite like to get down and see one of your gigs sometime but as I'm only 15 I can't get into any of the pubs you play in So next time you have a gig elsewhere I'll try and make it down
