The Son(s) (NOT "The Sons")

The Son(s) were three men, in a band, in Edinburgh, and I knew them then.
One Son went to London and made his fortune in the movies.
Another Son went to Oxford and lives in a small commune there.
The last Son eventually went back to the North East of Scotland and wrote and recorded these songs.

All three men had their quirks when I knew them. They had human strengths and frailties and I think you can hear both the great and the low in the music. For me, this is what makes the songs so special, so fine and so human.

So, the movie maker plays drums and the commune-ist the bass, but neither plays on or writes these songs. But you know, life is long, and one day the movie business will dry up and the commune will disperse, although not - I'd guess - soon. Still, I'm told there will be some new Son(s) songs released later this year, for download, on CD, perhaps even on vinyl.

For now, and perhaps forever (if you don't have a record player), you can hear Son(s) songs on SoundCloud (http://soundcloud.com/the-son-s) and BandCamp (http://theson.bandcamp.com/).

If you'd like to read what other folks have said then you can. I think these people put it best as they don't know The Son(s) personally at all. And maybe it’s better that way.
