introduction

Hello.

My name is Stephen Morris (pretentiously "Stephe" for short).

I write regular reviews for noizemakesenemies.co.uk along with the BBC Introducing pages of BBC Gloucestershire and BBC Kent's websites. I have also been known to make written contributions for BBC Birmingham.

The links you find listed on this site will take you through to my reviews, interviews and other articles as they appear on these external websites. There's also a few reviews exclusive to this site.

The above picture is a cunningly designed link that will take you through to my video review, Ten of the Best which summarises the best music from Gloucestershire over the last twelve months. While we're talking about videos, why not take a peak of this interview with Kent singer/songwriter, Rob Udberg?

With any luck, you'll like some of the stuff you find here. If not, you have my most sincere apologies. If you are in a band or are a musician and you would like me to cast my ears over your hard work, get in touch and I'll see what I can do.

Enjoy the sights, sounds and smells of the site. I'm off for a cup of tea.

Thanks

Stephe
