\"Phil<\/p>\n

Since getting his first guitar at the age of 11, Manchester singer\/songwriter Phil Middleton has considered his vocation to be that of a musician. He’s\u00a0toured extensively around the UK and Europe as part of a band, or fronting his own band: he’s an accomplished singer, songwriter and guitarist.<\/p>\n

Now pursuing a solo career, and writing songs with specific artists in mind (as well as writing for himself of course), Phil says about his music,<\/p>\n

\n

\u00a0‘I love to sing more than anything, the guitar was a vehicle that enabled me to sing by myself, but like most things associated with music, I’ve become hopelessly addicted!’<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Phil will be performing at The Angel Inn, Roynton, England, on May 16. Details can be found on their Facebook<\/a> page. You can find\u00a0Phil online on SoundCloud<\/a>, YouTube<\/a>, Reverbnation<\/a>, and Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n
