the boy i used to be - “Holiday” -
The boy i used to be is the project of Edward Perry, a 19 year old solo lofi/pop musician from Portsmouth. It’s more lofi in the sense that it’s mostly just him and a guitar rather than the glorious mess usually associated with that term, but we’ll let it slide this time. I don’t listen to Pete Yorn, but I imagine this is similar to how he sounds. No, that’s not it (though I did learn that Scarlett Johansonn sounds eerily like Lana Del Rey). Mumford & Sons? That’s not it either. Well, it’s like hushed singer-songwritery folk, it’s pretty good. Wait. Damien Rice. Kinda. Though not really the vocals. Let’s just say Cat Stevens because that’s a lot cooler. Anyway he’s releasing his Holiday EP on April 23 on handmade CD and as a pay what you like download over on the bandcamp where you can presently find his previous s/t release and his soundcloud with an assortment of songs.

there’s billy (from my other band ewar paris & the golden hairs) listening to tracks from the upcoming EP that is being recorded right now. i can tell you that ‘sunrise’ and ‘tape from africa’ are finished, with another two or three songs to be finished. it’s been a while, but a whole bunch of songs are waiting there for you to enjoy and i have special plans for you to get them in your hands and ears. these things are never as simple as first planned. there is no name for the ep yet, nor a set date for its release, but its so close to being done.
i have more news to announce, including different shows and gigs, but they are to come soon as i can’t tell you about them JUST yet, but i assure you, it’s worth the wait.
in the meantime, keep spreading the word, telling your friends and listening. it is all much appreciated.
edward.
i played with this man a little while ago and this new release is amazing, out soon on bleeding heart recordings.
