Online Comments FROM

THE EDINBURGH FRINGE FESTIVAL 2024

"Catch this show before the Fringe ends if you possibly can - you won't be disappointed. What a talented musician this guy is! Amazing stuff - especially playing the piano keyboard turned around so the white notes are at the top!!!"

"Paul creates amazing pieces from a multitude of sounds. Such an amazing and moving show. I could see him again and again"

"Great show and very interesting. I would thoroughly recommend., He's a very talented musician"

"Really interesting performance from a 'sound miner' who basically creates sounds from homemade instruments and sounds created from landscapes, think bridges, benches, tanks, walls, and those kind of things. What works so well is that as the songs are played a video plays showing the artist creating the sounds, i.e. banging on an airplane, tapping on a bench and so on and then plays a lead line over the backing track on a variety of instruments live. Was very impressed indeed as kind of imagined it was just banging on buckets or pipes, but vastly more intricate and sophisticated, would 100% recommend it!"

"Great show. I took my 14 year old grandson and we both thoroughly enjoyed it!"

VANCOUVER SUN


"This musical was well-delivered: the actors sang, played musical instruments and even danced. I predict this will be one of the picks of the Fringe, and I hope this musical with its message goes on tour around the world."
