Christopher Bradley: Drifting through Europe with nothing but a guitar, his backpack and a note book of songs, he ended up in Kiev, where he formed a band called The Frienzy consisting purely of Ukrainian musicians. They made high profile TV appearances on national stations (UT1, the highly popular Inter TV and, not least, the nascent MTV Ukraine), performed at several national festivals and toured the country's burgeoning acoustic/folk circuit until Chris could bear the locally distilled vodka no more! Returning to the UK, Chris completed a Masters in composition at Edinburgh University and began performing.

Chris has been tipped by William Hill, Offering odds of 33-1, to win the Mercury Music Prize by 2010, he will release his debut single ‘To My Ears’ on September 15th.
