Artist Biography
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Watching glam bands of Top of The Pops when I was 8/9 years old and living in England. Slade, Sweet, Alice Cooper, Bowie. Exciting times.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Joy Division, Unknown Pleasures (2019 Remaster) Public Image Ltd., Metal Box The Cure, Faith Some of the essential touchstones for Pimmel. Would have included one of the original Bauhaus or SATB albums but couldn't find one. Same with the early Sisters of Mercy Singles. We were punk kids that also really liked the goth end of the spectrum.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “I Just Need Myself” This is what brought Pimmel out of the living room and into the world. It's an early Cure cover done for an Argentinian tribute album.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Sitting next to Lemmy on a London-to-Rio flight to play a festival.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? [Deviant] Not really. Once the one full album is reissued, that it's for Pimmel. I have plenty of other projects keeping my business –– just want to keep at it until I'm physically unable. Then I'll complete the half-finished books on my laptop.
