Infamous short video clip. Made to accompany an unfinished version of the song "Is Anybody Home", this was a video to promote the then forthcoming "Ancient Light" CD |

A fun video which was used to promote a (now defunct) online football game - the message being if you can't play the 'real live' game you can still play Footski. The video features the song "Come Running" from the CD "Whispering". |
An 'in-the-studio' video, accompanying the song "Don't Give Up, Don't Give In", made to promote then then forthcoming "Ancient Light" CD. This was filmed at Lawson Dando's studio, Albany Productions, in Cardiff. |

Full Circle Live at the Greenbelt Festival 1995 Greenbelt is a Christian-based music festival that happens every year. Don't be fooled by the Christian tag though, the year we appeared the festival was attracting artists as diverse as Moby, Ricky Ross (Deacon Blue main man), Martyn Joseph, Samantha Fox (!?!) and the Alarm. Back then it's venue was the Prospect Farm in Suffolk but since then it's moved to Cheltenham Racetrack. We played two sets on consecutive days, each set being about 15 minutes. The Bandstand, the stage that we played on, was an open air stage that looked out on to a big open field. On the first day, there were just a few people laying in the August sunshine, but by the time we finished our final song (a version of the Monkees "I'm A Believer"), a few hundred people had gathered and set us off stage with a rousing applause. On the second day, with an expectant crowd who seemed to be mostly people who had caught the end of the previous day's set, we were hoping to spread some good vibes. As soon as Nigel strummed the first chord though, the Heavens opened and we had a traditional British Bank Holiday downpour. By the time we finished the first song, only a handful of our close friends were left sitting on sodden grass along with one elderly gentleman, his wife and his dog. As the downpour intensified, even some of our freinds ran for cover, but the elderly man and his wife, obviously festival veterans, produced several plastic bags with which to cover theselves, and proceeded to nod along to every song we played. They asked for a tape at the end of our set (which we duly obliged) and went off chattering about how good they thought we were. And that's the story of Full Circle's proverbial "one man and his dog" gig............... |
Full Circle live at Spring Harvest (Butlins, Minehead) 1995 |
Spring Harvest is a Christian festival that happened every year in the auspicious surroundings of Butlins in Minehead. We got invited to perform as one of our freinds was putting on a nightly 'event' for people aged 15 - 20, and he thought a musical interlude would work well in the context of this event. We performed just the one set, on a Tuesday night which had to be curtailed slightly becuase the event was in danger of over-running. It was a gig that we thoroughly enjoyed, the audience were very receptive and made plenty of noise to encourage us. The rest of the week, loads of 15 - 20 year olds were coming up to me or Nigel asking when we'd be performing next. For a variety of reasons, we didn't play at the event again. I did have a video of this gig because it was filmed for posterity. I think it's been lost when I moved home recently though. But if it does turn up at the bottom of one of those boxes that you never get round to unpacking, you can expect to see it here. |
My first professionally produced promo video for the single "Just One Kiss", which is taken from the "Movements in Space" album and released on October 6th 2008. Filmed and produced by Andy from www.slrcreations.com on a South Wales beach on day when the weather conditions could be classed as 'changeable'. |
A very quick video put together to accompany "Let's Play", the 'B' Side (yeah, I know we don't really have those any more....) to the single "Just One Kiss". It's basically just me and my freinds goofing about, enjoying life... |
The promotional video to accompany my second single, sad. The video was filmed in an old church hall which was also used by the BBC to film an episode of the series Gavin & Stacey, so we were in good company in choosing the venue. Andy from SLR creations has again produced a beautifully shot video. We had a great laugh making it and I hope that comes through. |
Just prior to filming the promo video for SAD, Andy from SLR Creations filmed a short interview to form the basis of a three minute 'portrait'. So this is me talking about my music, my life and my work. |

An attempt at an anarchic D-I-Y style video which evoked the 80's, which I thought would perfectly suit the sound and spirit and the single 'Dumb & Stupid'. |
