Paul McCartney is unable to teach my child music...

In an interview entirely fabricated to garner pointless publicity; uncredible, local-level musician Trevor Hambidge has revealed that Paul McCartney is quite unable to teach his child how to read and write music notation because Paul McCartney is unable to read or write music notation himself.


Speaking candidly on the subject, he told his uninterested canine companion 'Sasha' that "If I even had a child, I am quite sure I'd have to teach him or her myself how to use music notation - or hire a music teacher to do the job, because I'm sure Sir Paul is both too busy and musically ignorant to do it!"

He continues, "Paul McCartney doesn't even give a shit about my, admittedly fictitious, child and as a result I can only conclude that he is a massive ass-hat and totally unworthy of being one of the most successful musical composers of our age... but even if he did care, he still couldn't, because he can't read music!"

Long-time McCartney fan Hambidge, 35, even alludes to the fact that on his recent EP release 'Adverb Ego Mirth' (available to anyone who cares by clicking here), McCartney, 73, has even tried to leave his already considerable levels of fame and fortune entirely untouched, by NOT appearing on the record in any capacity, and by not even needing to refuse to have anything to with it by association.



"Seeing how he tried to cling on to the shirt tails of shit US rapper/singer Kanye West, 37 (pic above), and that girl with the over-sized forehead, 27, (pic below) in an attempt to tarnish his reputation, I was deeply offended that he made absolutely no attempt whatsoever to plummet towards obscurity by appearing on my latest record." he fumed.


"I've seen all these posts on Twitter and Facebook from young kids saying they all know who Paul McCartney is, and admire him, but not even one of them claims to 'not know' who I am?" he ranted.

It is believed that so few people even know who Hambidge is, that Metro and other such 'click-baiting' media cesspits are unlikely to even try and leverage his unpopularity into a pointless article with a controversial sounding headline that serves absolutely no purpose.

Adverb Ego Mirth Release



Whilst studying for my degree in Commerical Music Performance and Production, I have been regularly sneaking into the college recording studio to lay down tracks for my 'homework' and what has become my first 'proper' solo EP. After many overdubs and remixes I am finally able to release this work to the world, and here it is.

It is called Adverb Ego Mirth - a rather meaningless jumble of the letters that spell my name - and I have 'released' it in the manner of our times on my own little record label 'Less Economically Developed Music' - a far more accurately named entity reflecting my own limited resources. The EP is available to download from my own site, iTunes, Spotify and other such digital mediums. If anyone prefers an actual CD then you can buy one from my bandcamp page.

It is the product of much love and my own inimitable do-it-yourself style of music production with an emphasis on 'vibe' and other such meaningless tangibles. The four songs are from my more recent repertoire of live tracks - given a little touch up and arranged in a way that I am unable to do live without the help of some extra musicians.

Submarine - Mischief - Shadow Boxing - Home

Many thanks to those who have collaborated with me on these tracks to give it a little contrast and humanity: Amy Leggett who plays piano and keys and sings some harmonies, and also Bethany-Siobahn who provided some extra harmony vocals also...

The final icing on the cake comes by way of Cornish artist Ann Boo Whetter, who provided the striking artwork which is so important as the first bite is always with the eye. You can see more of Anne's unique work here.

I must also thank John Russell and Andy Cunningham, from Truro College, who supplied me with extra ears with which to mix and balance all the tracks into a listenable medium.

Please give the EP a listen, and if you like it do please share it amongst your friends on social media as this really does help me to reach new listeners. This music is created on starvation wages so these little gestures of love really do go a long way to claw back some finance from the grip of Apple and the others who largely consider the efforts of musicians to be a worthless commodity.

Love to all, and thanks for listening.
