Mr. D.

Mr. D.
P o r t r a i t

Mr. D. (aka Paul) is alternative / folk rock / Americana musician from Glasgow, Scotland, United Kingdom.

"WINGS & WHEELS"
Work on the writing of this album began in 'Late September' 2006. In the initial stages of pre-production I could count on the invaluable assistance of Phil O'Shea and Paul Quinn (Teenage Fanclub) and I would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their efforts. In December 2006 I ventured into Q-10 studios in Glasgow with Larry Primrose. We had 20 songs, and 20 days booked, to record the album. As the number of songs dwindled the number of days grew. Finally by late April 2007 we emerged, blinking, into the sun with a 10 song CD. Next up was the formation of my band. Please put your hands together for: Steve - guitars / vocals; James - bass / vocals; and Monkey - drums. I'd like to thank them for helping bring my music to life. Gigs will be played. Songs will be sung. Wings take you somewhere; wheels bring you home.

Hank Williams once said: "If a song can't be written in 20 minutes it ain't worth writing". Every time I write a song now I have one eye on the clock.

Every artist says a little about themselves; so I guess I should say something too. I'm a singer / songwriter from Glasgow and my names not really Mr. D. - its Paul. I put, what amounted to bedroom demos, on my site, and received so much genuine praise and encouragement; that I thought I'd better record my songs properly. I got some money together, booked a studio, and the results are what you're listening to just now. I could say loads of other stuff but I'd rather let the music do the talking; if there's anything you really want to ask just message me.

Late at night was the time I did most of my writing for this album. I also think it's the best time to listen to it. I hope you like it; no matter what time of day you put it on, and before you go, remember... Smooth seas don't make skilful sailors.

REVIEWS
"A near perfect Scottish-bred, guitar-pop album that jingles, jangles and shimmers like golden Rickenbackers from the heavens above.'" - Eric Shea, Rhapsody
"I'll Keep Looking Around is exactly what The Thrills have been trying to do on two albums... This is the sort of record, that if picked up by a major would become a coffee table hit." - 8 / 10, Del Day, Americana UK
"Super mellow country rock which is sedate yet enthralling, and draws comparisons to The Eagles and the subtleties of fellow Scots Travis." - 7.5 / 10, scot-rock.co.uk
"He comes armed with a gentle and poetic phrasing that makes his narratives truly unforgettable...a stunning debut." - Alex Green, Editor, caughtinthecarousel
"An album of pleasant, melodic pop... these songs mix Californian-styled sunny jangle-pop with Americana and a bit of country" - 8 / 10, indiepages.com
"Accomplished playing, intelligent arrangements and overall well produced." - Paul Finnie, isthismusic?
"The music has a timeless feel that can easily fit into any decade from the last 40 years and the coming 40 years, as well. Such is the music of Scotland's Mr. D." - Bruce Bodeen, NotLameRecords
"Chock full of strummy and glistening guitars, hook-filled gems, and heavenly harmonies! A positively brilliant debut! Can't say enough about this one." - Ray Gianchetti, KoolKatMusik
"Sunny melodies, delicious harmonies. Carefree as the summer." - John Gjaltema, altcountry.nl
"Melodies of polished gold which bring you back to the American West Coast" - Patrick Donders, hanx.net

LIVE REVIEWS
"Support band Mr. D. draw on their love of late 60s early 70s West Coast influences for inspiration-full of dreamy harmonies and subtle emotive changes. 'New Day', dedicated to singer Steve McCluskey's newborn daughter, was the highlight of a compelling performance." - 4 / 5, Andy Kerr, Sunday Mail
