 Baldego is one-man band J.J. McGowan. Influenced by the likes of Led Zeppelin, Muse, Radiohead, Hendrix, Copelandia Cyanescens, Fear of Death and anything with a good groove, Baldego was born.
2005 saw the completion of his debut album, Escape
Hatch - a collection of songs recorded over a year
in and out of rehearsal rooms and bedrooms, quickly
followed by a steady stream of gigs as a solo
acoustic act.
Now an established live performer
within the Glasgow and Edinburgh music scene,
Baldego's live shows have included supports for the likes of Jamie T and Nick
Harper. His shows incorporate percussive, vocal and
electronic loops for something a little bit
different on the live scene, and this has seen him recently voted XFM's Uploaded artist of the week.
Album number two 'Firebrand', recently released, "soars and shivers with emotional pop tunes...epic songwriting" says Fuse Magazine, while Music News Scotland hailed it as a 'winner'. It’s only a matter of time before
Baldego’s music becomes more widely
recognised.....check it out. |
