   About alan mckim

**IMPORTANT NEWS**

Demo's removed from MySpace, Bebo and website
As you may have noticed, I had to remove the demo recordings I made in London a while ago from MySpace. This was due to legalities concerning the producer who recorded the tracks. It was a shame however I have re-recorded them live in my living room just to get something up for the time being. Hope you like them!

 ...click here to go to alanmckim.com

The self-styled solo singer/songwriter IS GNARLING HIS WAY to the creation of a new acoustic genre on the back of artist-led foot thumping commercial chorus chants, nastily clever lyrics and seriously infectious hooks.

A live performance entrenched in heart, mind, body & soul commitment to the cause is enthralling at least, mesmerising at best. Fury, angst, love, desire and loss are the tools but the craft is in the vitalised emotive delivery which challenges the audience to feel what he feels....this, is the connection, which sets him apart.

Already a well respected Paisley performer, Alan is now being taken as seriously as befits his talent and has recently signed a publishing deal with Nettwerk One Music Ltd.

This is the beginning of a great story….be advised to be a part of it!!!

i can't believe you're supporting passenger babe

also can't believe they're playing the crow bar, seems a bit small...
