SAINTS & LIARS Music Video

Bum bum bumna (that’s my trumpet sound). Please enjoy the video for my nearly 6 minute single, Saints & Liars from the upcoming PONY BOY EP. Clearly going for the top of the pops with this one.

Filmed on location in Glasgow at the Fairfield Working Mens Club Tea Dance. Oh yeah. Shot, Edited & Directed by Paul Fegan assisted by Ellen Tolsma.

Saint’s & Liars love

I have to thank fellow blog When You Awake for turning me onto L.A./London-based chanteuse Pony Boy. Back in my adolescence, I read and thoroughly enjoyed S.E. Hilton’s classic youth novel The Outsiders as part of my school’s curriculum, and was immediately attracted this musical project, named for the narrator of that text. …Influenced by all the right names from Tom Waits and Howlin’ Wolf to Bobby Gentry and Wanda Jackson. “Saint and Liars,” is a pleasant mix of slow-burning electric guitar, 1960s mellotron, and sultry vocals. The video, filmed at a Working Men’s Club in Glasgow, comes across as the Scottish corollary to the film Searching For the Wrong-Eyed Jesus. Either way, both the song and the video are excellent, and I’m very excited to hear more music from this project. Enjoy!

Pony Boy on Harmon Drive!

Check it out yo!

“…There is a distinct natural beauty in her voice that speaks to the soul, I also love that her website points out that this song among others was recorded “mostly in one-take performances between beers and Mexican food.” Viva. ”

Let’s get huge people. Pony Boy on Captains Dead

Captains Dead is a badazz site. So it’s pretty sweet to get some Saints & Liars love.

http://captainsdead.com/ponyboy-saints-liars.html

“im gonna preface this by stating that i am only a man, and being the heterosexual man that i am, i am drawn to women; especially lovely women you can sing, and play guitar. so, i have zero shame in saying what drew me to listen to ponyboy’s music is that she’s quite an attractive young lady. but, and this is a huge but, it doesnt mean shit if her music doesnt back it up. luckily for all of us, from what i have heard, it does…. ive only heard a handful of songs, but she’s kind some smokey pipes reminiscent of chan marshall but with more a whisky soaked southern lilt – or at least it sounds southern. although, she may be from los angeles? at this point she’s an enigma wrapped in a riddle as i dont know anything about her, and actually thats ok with me. i dont even know if its ponyboy or pony boy? shes got a bunch of tracks streaming on her site, and all of them are pretty damn great. i really, really look forward to hearing more from her aka a full record, and it sounds like it may be in the works. i dont say this often, but she could be huge.”
