Tricks Of The Trade Won't Save The Day

Hailing from the North of England and currently hiding from everybody he upset there in West Cork, Jake has managed to successfully avoid anything vaguely resembling a career and has instead devoted all the spare time required to be successful in a proper job to attempting to write the perfect pop song. Several near misses litter his past (as well as hundreds that sailed aimlessly into the bleachers) but this most recent offering promises to be his nearest miss yet. He played his first ever gig in 1982 aged 12 at theTrinity youth club in Barnsley and despite being bullied mercilessly by the bigger boys for being a girlie show-off the taste for performing has never gone sour.
