GIG: NEWCASTLE MONUMENT, AUGUST 30TH

Hey guys! 

So last week I posted notifying you I was playing at Newcastle Monument as part of World Cities Week. It was a great experience and something that was new to me as it was a solo acoustic gig, something I've never tried before! Apart from a few minor issues the gig went very well, and I'd like to thank everyone who stood and listened to me play. Lets hope that I'll get some more gigs lined up like this!

If you're interested, below is a video from the gig of me performing my original track, 'For all Time'...

I do apologise about my miffed face at the end, but I have learned a life lesson that I will share with you:
If you are offered a chair (no matter how big the stage) take one! Especially if you have a nylon strap, otherwise your guitar slips (hence the pissed off look)! Get a leather one and you should be fine, it'll grip. 

Thank you to Emily Parker for coming to support me and for recording the video! You can view Emily's fashion blog here (and its worth a read!):http://emulehparker.wordpress.com/

Thank you to Michael Andisen and One Love North East for having me on to play (cheers Mike!) http://www.onelovenortheast.co.uk (currently under construction, contact them via onelovenortheast@gmail.com)

And lastly thank you to anyone who watched and listened, even if you were just walking past, I appreciate it! Also thank you for watching the video!

I shall also link the original recording below. Don't forget to LIKE me on FACEBOOK, FOLLOW me on TWITTER and LISTEN to me on SOUNDCLOUD.

Thank you as always,

G-PLAY, LATEST TRACK!

I've been playing with freeware guitar amp/pedal VSTs, found a brilliant one with this delay on. I like it when they last forever as it gives the sense that its a loop pedal... which I can't afford :P

Anyhow, cooked up this. It is up to you to listen to it, no singing, just me playing for 4 minutes, so yeah, sorry about that.

In other news, our band have just started practising again so watch this space for future developments!

Best,
Khyle

PUBLISHED!

Hey guys! This week I had an interview published in print and online for my local paper, the Peterlee Star.

Published on Wednesday 25 July 2012 11:28

In this week’s look into the vibrant East Durham music scene, we visited talented Easington songwriter Khyle Fryer.

Khyle’s music is not only performed by him, but also produced and recorded within the four walls of his home.

He has been part of many bands as guitarist and vocalist, however he is now standing at the front of the stage by himself, playing his own songs his way.

The Star – Currently, what are you doing musically?

Khyle – I’m a singer/songwriter, I play guitar, drums and piano. I used to perform as a bassist in my previous band but recently we split up so I perform as a solo artist.

I study music and music production at Teesside University, record and produce my own tracks.

The Star – You describe yourself as a singer songwriter, what genre would you put yourself in?

Khyle – I don’t limit myself to certain genres and I’m practically open to trying anything. I am currently listening to Death Cab For Cutie, Biffy Clyro. Two Door Cinema Club and Goyte so I would hope that my music is a mix of electric genres.

The Star – What do you hope to achive within music?

Khyle – My goal is for many to hear my music. To achieve some success, maybe even to gig at festivals and in front of thousands of people.

I have had numerous tracks played on BBC Radio and a single I released has sold well and it lifts my spirits. I’ve had numerous tracks played on BBC Radio and airplay across different countries.

○Khyle is trying to make his mark and get his own music heard on the internet. You can add to his current four hundred and thirty three followers on “Soundcloud” http://soundcloud.com/khyle-fryer.

THE COFFI HOUSE

So I not long ago I played a few songs at The Coffi House in Cardiff, Wales. The songs went down a treat! Now I'm back here in sunny (ha!) Easington, going to be practicing soon with the lads and then shortly after we'll be gigging locally! How does that sound? ;)

Latest edition to my SoundCloud, Something of a Dream.

MY PEERS THINK OTHERWISE

An original piece of mine. I was inspired by Manchester Orchestra with this song. I know it doesn't really sound like their stuff, but I have them to thank for this song anyway. I have recorded it and you can check the recording out here:
