Alright we’re playing this Friday with the Dead Pirates and Vial, we’ve got some new stuff that should rock the house, so hopefully I can make my way back to England in time for the gig and I’ll share a beer with you guys.

Happy new years dicks !
To celebrate we’re playing live with the Dead Pirates and our friends Vial the 11th of january in London at the Bar Fly.
Fresh start !
So My friend Nicolas Tual is doing a show at the Queen of Hoxton on thursday, and he invited a few mates to come around a draw with him. For the occasion I’ve made two colored illustration, they’re going to be printed with a risograph printer and sold cheaply. Now I don’t exactly know why I went for color this time, but if you’re thinking about asking for color, I probably won’t do it again anytime soon, I’ve been told I could use a maximum of 3 colors and so I went ahead and used them all.
The Party on Thursday is going to be a lot of fun, so come around, there’s bands playing ( one of them being the Dead Pirates, obviously) and if you’re thinking about arriving after 8pm, then put your name on the guest list HERE.
cheers

The Dead Pirates live at the Dudes Factory, filmed by kate from Vial.
So I just arrived in Berlin, doing a bit of a Dudes Factory residence, drawing stuff, paintings shits, and Friday we’ll do a massive party to show everything, with the Dead Pirates playing. Starts at 19h this friday. Details Here !
for ma band:
London based band, the dead pirates, have surfaced an EP of the kind of Rock n’ Roll that is sorely missing from today scene of bloops & beeps. Formed by the visual artist McBess & his brother Ben, this 5-piece group is rekindling the flame of stoner rock & good ole rhythm & blues. The FAT EP leads in with a driving beat & a barrage of steady eighth note guitar assaults on “the fingers dance” before diving into the 2 part “Roadtrim” suite that is full of stomping, burning riffs & Rhodes piano melancholy that slow builds to an angsty climax.
Pick up the FAT EP on their site, thedeadpirates.com.
And check some of McBess’ artwork here.
