My parents bought me a digital four-track for my birthday back in 1999. Although I had already been writing songs and playing drums, guitar, bass and piano; now I could put it all together on a cassette tape to play for my friends in my Voyager. Between 1999 and 2004 I recorded three albums which were not released. Well, unless you consider giving ten copies to your friends releasing an album.
My first two albums - Dundalk Sunrise (2001) and Assemblage (2003) featured mostly punk/ pop-punk songs with some doo-wop, jazz, hardcore, death metal, and other experimental numbers mixed in. Around the time I recorded Assemblage I put together another album - Soma (2004) of some songs from Dundalk Sunrise in addition to about ten other songs I'd written around the same time.
In 2004 I hit the big stage, in that pearl of Baltimore - The Brass Monkey Saloon. With various lineups I've also graced the stages of The Vault, The Barn, Huckleberry's Coffee House and St. Margaret's Church.
In 2005 recording began on what would two years later become Ours Was the Saddest Anime (2007). This was my first album to be released online. As usual the genres are all over the place. This album also features the talents of friends and family which adds to the unique instrumentation in many of the songs.
Around the same time as the online release of Ours Was The Saddest Anime, I set up some borrowed drum mikes and began laying down drums tracks for my next album - Truly I Say To You.... For the first time I recorded an album that could most accurately be classified in one genre - Grindcore. How about that. Truly I Say To You... is also available now on CDBaby and iTUNES.
Most recently I recorded a short EP - The Lonely World's Song - of four new songs that can be downloaded for free from percyshaw.com.

Sorry for the long delay. I finally listened to your slices and must say they are impressive. Unusual portions to my normal intake. Well presented. I can't begin to be all inclusive, but you touched those ancient tones Bill Monroe spoke of and connected them to now. Elvis C , All my Lovingr by Paul Mc a dew something, and even the soundtrack of Fanny. I'm not much for screaming but artisticaly it fit well. Keep taping your heart and showing us your courage to be you in a world that continues to attempt to mold and conform us. Rock on is and old cliche but isn't everything already written. Thanks for adding me to your list and sharing yourelf at least the portion we can see and much looking forward to the revelation of the rest.

All the best, Percy.
