If ever there were characters worthy of your respect, it's SEED their flamboyant genre-smashing style. I had the pleasure of listening to their up and coming Album, I was blown away. In particular their new single Midnight Walking. (WOW) Words can not explain the formidable force behind the music enough. Seed invited me to one of their gigs at Ealing Boulevard they don't really do gig like anyone else either. Their set was delicate, hard hitting and perfectly crafted. They ache, tease and rejoice in all the right places, emphasised further by their lead guitarist ability to play Sophisticated notes yet beautiful at the same time. Songs like the witfully gorgeous 'Houdini' and 'summer romancing' sound even more spectacular. Echoes of the hot chilli peppers creep in, but husky-throated singer Phil Marcs is sufficiently cheeky and entertaining to prevent any further comparisons.

Phil is also working evenings and weekends in his own studio producing for artists such as Prince Ade (www.myspace.com/princeade) with a hip hop album due for release this winter. Other acts Phil is working with include R&B Rock Gospel sensation Elvis Chambers, and the formidable lyricist and spoken word, rap phenomenon DE.
With his own 12 track acoustic solo album in the final stages of production, Phil is well on his way to becoming the next singer song/writer/producer sensation.
