Marc Halls (ex-Hey Vanity and Fei Commodo) has announced a new solo EP, out on July 14th. ‘Bittersweet Memories’ is preceded by advance track ‘Playground Swings’. Speaking about the project, the soloist said:
“After a well-needed kick up the arse from a close friend I started writing again and these songs were suddenly pouring out of me, everything I wrote seemed to be about the bands I’ve been in, friendships and relationships I’ve formed & lost, and most of all, how much I regret taking it all too seriously. ‘Bittersweet Memories’ was the result. It’s the most honest, D.I.Y recording I’ve ever released, I recorded and mixed everything in my ‘Man Cave’ (garden shed) using only whatever I had in there. I even restrung my first ever guitar for the first time in 10 years (£30 acoustic from Argos) and recorded two of the tracks with that, turns out it sounds awesome! This EP is a very simple, stripped back piece of work (and my next release is going to be bigger and louder), but this is just what I wanted it to be.
