The Grey Lady Music Lounge, Sunday 12th May 2019

My name is Steve Hewitt, I'm 29years old, and I'm a singer/singer songwriter based in Edenbridge, Kent.

My love of music came about after listening to Buddy Holly when I was 14, but my approach to music changed drastically when I heard David Gray's White Ladder for the first time; that's when I put the electric guitar down and bought my first acoustic guitar and started to write.

My aim has always been to write lyrics that have meaning and purpose that the listener can relate to and  empathise with.

To best describe my genre, it would be acoustic soul pop, with hints of
blues/folk and indie.

My main influences started at the already mentioned
Buddy Holly, on to David Gray, Bob Dylan, John Legend and Fink.

Pete Billing and Barry McCormack had not played music with each other for some years. When they got together for a jam session they had so much fun and positive feedback that they felt they had to get there music out there and start gigging. They added top drummer Pete Roberts, a seasoned musician who played with professional chart topping bands with several top ten hits behind him.  Pete and Barry have numerous recording credits whose music is available to buy on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon etc. Together they are the fabulous Hoolies. Their lyrics are humorous, taking a poke at anything that takes their fancy.  Their music is described as pulsating funky rock. Be prepared to be entertained.
