Artist Information
Biography
Dropping out of school to play in a punk band; an engineering apprenticeship; 5 years as a busker; medical school; chairman of an allotment association - all experiences that fuel Stephen Hartley’s brilliant observational songwriting as frontman with offbeat 3-piece VINCENT BLACK LIGHTNING
Hartley (best known as guitarist with seminal punk band NOTSENSIBLES) is joined on bass by Lee Jones + Bish Davies on drums.
The band create a raw uncompromising sound through vintage valve amps and guitars with sounds ranging from full on rock & roll punk to subtle ballad.
The songs are sharply observed, with cryptic blasts of autobiographical anecdote, searing wit and social observation.
The punk ethic, the great rockabilly guitar players, the English music scene - these are all influences. VINCENT BLACK LIGHTNING sit in the same broad park as bands like the Smiths & Gang of Four
