About
“If you want meaningful and poignant song writing without being preached at then look to Stylusboy. It is a renewed innocence filled with hope and light during a dark and hopeless day.” – Tasty Burger Records
“Mixing a sense of melancholy akin to Aqualung with a sense of the melodic that recalls the lighter side of Ryan Adams.” – God is in the TV
“Stylusboy can best be described as melodic acoustic fare, but there is more to the music than that, in fact I just can’t put my finger on it.” – Die Shellsuit Die
Stylusboy is a singer songwriter from Coventry playing melodic, delicate songs that warm the heart. Think Aqualung, Damien Rice, Badly Drawn Boy or maybe Elbow.
‘Fingerprint ep’ is Stylusboy’s debut release and he has recorded and produced the EP himself with the help a few friends. ‘Fingerprint ep’ contains songs about love, hope, joy and the beautiful things in every day life. Recording the drums in a local community centre and the rest of the EP in his lounge, this is very much a home grown release. Tracks been very warmly received and already had radio play. 13 Shuffle have described the track ‘Stopclock’ as “Purely fragile - a precious parcel beautifully bubble-wrapped - handled with care & sincerity.”
Stylusboy gigs regularly and live outings are an intimate affair where he takes the listeners on a journey with his guitar and voice. He recently played a packed mainstage at the Godiva Festival, a performance that helped his reputation grow further.
