The Genre Benders

Welcome to 2020 - the year of the Genre Benders! Thank you for subscribing to our profile.

Thanks also for putting our latest release "Maccas Drive Through Blues" into the top 10 on the country charts! We hope that you get a giggle out of recognising the feeling and a kick out of sharing this experience. (If you missed it, here's the video: (expired link)) Huge will be playing this one at the Tamworth Country Music Festival in Australia later in January ... it would be great to see you there.

Although things have been very quiet on the GBs front lately, They will pick up immensely in 2020 - Huge is now an Empty Nester and it's time to get on with the show! More releases, more shows, and more collaborations are coming! And possibly a relocation to a new city ... maybe.

Just before Christmas, Huge went out and bashed off some barnacles at the Open Mic Sessions at Stones Corner Hotel. He had a ball and played three GBs songs as well as sat in on drums for a couple of mates. Here's a few pics of the fun:

If you'd like to collaborate with us, drop us a line - we're looking for people to play with and projects to work on. It's easy to do ... you know you want to ... :-)

Cheers,
Huge and the Genre Benders

Hi. BIG news from GBs HQ ...

Our Fearless Leader, Huge, has decided - at long last - to have a serious crack at this music career thing: (expired link)

Huge completed a PhD in how to build an independent music business back in 2011, but his divorce left him unable to test his theories. He has now decided that it's time to have a red hot go at applying what he learned. :-)

In that spirit, here's some videos of his most recent appearance, along with Mike Barber, at a local Open Mic: (expired link) There is a sequence of four of these following this one. The point of these appearances (there will be more coming) is to get Huge's live solo show back up to the standard it was when he last toured the USA in 2010.

If you'd like to see what he's doing, he's determined to share his story with everyone who's trying to be an independent muso. To stay in touch, subscribe to the blog above, or like our publisher's Facebook page at (expired link)

Everything he tries and everything that works and everything that fails will be made available for you to comment, suggest, laugh at, and learn from. Help yourself - this is what Huge wants to be his legacy.

Finally, we will have another parody single coming out very soon! It will be posted here on N1M but to get a heads-up on it, subscribe to our Youtube Channel ((expired link)) or Facebook page ((expired link)). And if you know someone else who could benefit from this treasure trove of experience, please share it with them.

Thanks for your time and attention. Hope to catch you soon ... :-)

Cheers,
The Genre Benders
