Introducing Blurred Vision from Plymouth

How did you decide upon the name Blurred Vision?
It came from a song called Blurred Vision which Meltz wrote about twelve years ago.

Meltz?
Gary Meltdown, the drummer and backing vocalist. Then there's Mainman Michael John who plays guitar and sings lead vocals. Between us we have a real passion for music and especially playing live.

So the vision may be blurred but let's hope your hearing isn't. Listen to the track and then tell him what you think by CLICKING HERE

Which three words best describe your music?
Rhythm And Blues!

We started out in 1997, ostensibly as a Rock 'n' Roll outfit but gradually transformed into a Rhythm and Blues act.

The track you've chosen is "Keep The Change", what's it about?
It's all about a man who doesn't want a committed relationship. Rather than having one night stands or resorting to red light areas he has a certain arrangement with a "very fine lady"!

What are your musical tastes?
Meltz - Rolling Stones, DR Feelgood, Wilko Johnson, Peter Green, Eric Clapton plus all other Blues pre-war, Delta, Chicago etc. I like a lot of music including Hawkwind, Radiohead, REM, Talk Talk, XTC, Coldplay etc...

It would've been easier to ask who you don't like!
What about Mainman?
My collection is in the same vein but on a smaller scale.
Meltz: Most of yours are mine!

Now then, stop squabling boys, how about finishing this sentence..."If we became famous..."?
Meltz: We wouldn't do any overtime.
Mainman: We don't anyway.
Meltz: Oh yeah!

The future..?
To do a Blues Night for the Plymouth Music Co-operative. To play more venues around the South West and further.
To take part in Blues Festivals in pubs/fringe tents.
To become more involved in beer festivals and Bike Rallies.
To release a CD this year and work on our own material to put into a live set. We like to keep busy and set goals.

Best and worst thing about Devon?
The best thing is playing venues in coastal , country and city areas that are all in close proximity.
Worst thing is getting a decent parking space!
