About chrisbaston's channel
There are two main reasons for this channel:
• To provide a record of the songs I have written with my friend Ian (the "Baston/Wilson" songs), many of which I am very proud of. Considering we've written hundreds, I have a long way to go
• To have a go at performing some of my favourite songs. I am in a band that plays high energy pop/rock, and this channel allows me to indulge myself and play slower songs.
All songs are recorded on my iphone using the standard iphone microphone. The recordings aren't perfect but I don't post anything unless there is something about the recording that appeals to me.
