Phil McCammon

Phil McCammon has been writing and recording using his own brand of songwriting for the best part of ten years now. A graduate of Berklee College of Music in Boston, Phil McCammon has performed pretty much around the globe. With live appearances in Scotland, USA, India and Switzerland, Phils' career has been slowly but surely gaining momentum. Taking his influences from artist such as Bowie, Dave Matthews, World Party and Peter Gabriel, Phil moulds mellow nostalgic "mood rock" with fast gripping catchy"seven rock" - Phil's own brand of rythmic experimentation combined with straight forward Rock. Often merging modern instruments with the traditional, Phil's sound has recently been straying around various programming sessions with computers and other electronic gizmos resulting in tracks like "Makes You Think" and "Real Time Slide", both of which have recieved positive feedback in Central Europe and the USA. Such classics as "Breaking Waves", "Butterfly Eyes" and "These are ways" have recieved much acclaim around the Boston & New York Music scene. Recently "Cry Out Loud" peaked at number 3 on Broadjam Progressive Rock Top 10 (Nov 2004) charts and "Beyond Infinity" reached number 10 in the Electronica Top 10 Broadjam Charts (April 2005). Phil performs either solo, brandishing his one man band consisting of him and unseen electronic gizmos running in the background or with his Band SPAT which performs around Switzerland and headlined at the Cully Jazz Festival (Festival OFF - a sub event of the Jazz Festival for Rock/Pop Bands) in April 2004.

Currently Phil writes, rehearses, performs in Zurich, Switzerland where he pays his bills by transcribing sheet music into Braille for the blind.
