   About Paul Clews
Paul began to learn guitar in 1980 to start a punk band called The State Renegades with a couple of mates, who happened to be brothers. His second band were, The Creeping Flesh Eating Rats From Mars That Devoured The Universe Last Saturday (probably the longest name for a band ever. Unless of course, you know different). Pauls next band and incidentally the first one to actually do a gig, were the High Cholesterol Meat Eaters. This band was essentially himself, doing a Sonic Youth sort of thing. In 1985 Paul started a record shop in Ilfracombe North Devon and two years later bought out the local music shop, He ran them for 7 years before deciding to move on to different things. During this time Paul started a fairly successful Ilfracombe band called The Pyromaniacs From Outerspace, who were a kind of Cramps style band. It was during this period that the infamous River of Desire was written, or kind of ripped off from The Orson Family. All though his is quite different. He began to teach guitar in 1986. Since then his guitar school has gone from strength. After qualifying as a teacher in 2003, he now also teaches in Braunton College, Woolacombe Infants School, and for Devon Adult and Community Learning. For more information on lessons visit the website http://mysite.freeserve.com/guitarlessons Presently Paul is playing for and running The Backtrackers, who are a fully professional band playing all over the U.K. The band was started in December 2001. They cover popular songs from the 60s to the present chart at weddings, parties, functions, corporate events hotels and clubs etc. They also have a set of nursery songs for childrens events and pre-schools. For more information on the band visit our website http://mysite.freeserve.com/Backtrackers Paul was untill November 2006 also doing vocals and guitar in the punk band Drain. Paul also has many years of recording experience of his own bands and other bands. A demo of his recording work is can be listened to on his band website. In January 2004 he up graded his recording studio to the latest digital technology. He as been a member of the Musicians Union since 1998.

Hey hows it going?
We reeeeeeeaaaaaallllllllyyyyyy need you!
We are aiming to get into the top 20 UK chart with the single 'Ask Away' - The single is in memory of our bassist/vocalist Tim Brown and it would be the best lasting memory we could do for him.


The single is out June 11th (Just 1 week away!!), and would help us so much if you picked up a copy(or 2!!!!). You will be able to order from HMV online , and most download sites from monday June 11th! There will be links from our page to all the sites so keep checking back


YOU CAN PREORDER IT ON HMV NOW, THERE IS A PREORDER LINK ON OUR PAGE!


Would be really amazing if you bought a copy in that week, and help us make Tims dream come true


Thankyou! and keep rocking!


Pete, Nick and Jonny xx

Hey everyone

We've finished the new album, Life In General, and it's sounding kickass - if you can't wait for the launch party on the 12th May, you can listen to a track taken from it, The Decline, on the site - learn the words and let us know what you think!

abe you have gone and done it this time. since the last two months, I have been seeing some insane changes in patricks way of doing things, especially when it comes to him and the girls from school. I mean he has been dating all the hottest girls from private-school and I hear angie might even be knocked up, but it is not confirmed yet. Anyway, pete has been taking these peewee enlarge capsules from SDPERM.COM for a few months and I caught him in the act when a bottle dropped out of his pocket at school.
He made me sware to him that I would never ever tell any of the girls he has been with and that it would ruin his rep. He told me that the capsules from SDPERM.COM made his thing grow three inches and much thicker now, I did not believe him at all until he was beside me in the bathroom and I was amazed, he looked like a pronstar with that magic stick, huge and powerfull, I went to the site myself and ordered myself six bottles and they have a full money back guarentee so its safe. Hook yourself up now at SDPERM.COM
