Soap In A Bathtub

Stoney

Transistor Music

WE SAY

Stoney is Mark Stoney, from the happening musical city of Sheffield. He was recently the subject of Dan Cairns' New Kids In Town feature in the Sunday Times, he has sessions scheduled with 6 Music and Xfm plus support from Bob Harris and Dermot O'Leary on Radio 2, and his last single was worldwide Single of the Week on iTunes. This one just works really well as a song and a lyric. He plays London's Troubadour tonight (1 June), and the unsigned band ‘Late 'n’ Live’ stage at Glastonbury. (NB. Transistor has nothing to do with the other label Transistor Project)
