Noel Gallagher Thinks He's Colossal, It's Jersey Budd




















A few months ago I posted on up and coming Leicester musician Jersey Budd who was inspired by his fathers love of Dylan, Springsteen, Lou Reed, Cat Stevens, Paul Weller, and also later captivated by Oasis, Jersey picked up a guitar as a teenager and taught himself to play.

The result is a collection of classically crafted songs, shaped by his peers, yet effortlessly his own; his unique voice, soul, and talent for a melody having led to Jersey being tipped as one to watch after only a handful of gigs, albeit supporting Kasabian, The Enemy, The Rifles and Hard Fi.

Jersey is currently recording his debut album in Leicester after the instant sell out of his debut single in August. His 2nd single is due out Jan 2008. Listen out for him and watch him grow.

Tipped for great future in the UK newspapers and music magazines at the turn of the year, is this is the year Jersey takes his place on the top of the UK music scene?

Noel Gallagher (OASIS) "Jersey is colossal and he's going to be huge next year."

Serge Pizzorno (KASABIAN) "Great voice and a great talent."

The Sun "A plumber by day, Jersey is set to kiss kitchen sinks goodbye with his gravelly tones and Dylanesque guitar. This boy is going to be as big as fellow Leicester lads Kasabian."

The Daily Star "Budd’s Bruce Springsteen vocals and guitar pop will be a winner in ’08."

NME "Jersey has KOKO eating out of his guitar hardened hands, storming through Oasis go honky tonk rollock rockers like Shotgun Times to nothing less than adulation"

Tom (THE ENEMY) "Jersey's got one of the best f##king voices I've ever heard"

Leicester Mercury "There are loads of male singer/songwriters out there at the moment, and there will be the inevitable comparisons with James Blunt, Paulo Nutini and James Morrison, but the truth is, he's nothing like them."
