Lord Jangle is a singer, actor and composer. He is a Retro artist specialising in new songs in a classic rock style with an orange twist of variety. Lord Jangle's music is similar to Queen, ELO, Pink Floyd, Abba and the late Beatles. Like his influences, he does not remain rigidly in one style or genre.
“They say you can't do that!” Lord Jangle jokes, “but that is exactly what the top bands of all time did. I have always loved rock, classical, jazz, folk and dance pop. Why would I pick just one of these styles to play? It seriously limits what you can do musically. Also, why would I put on a fake American accent? It is not true to the self."
Lord Jangle has lived for about ten years in many far-off lands. He spent two years in Africa in the hot deserts of Sudan, after which he lived in Ukraine, the Tatarstan region of Russia, the USA, Southeast Asia and Uzbekistan. He is a writer, adventurer and electronics inventor. He has written a concerto, various classical pieces and 300+ songs. He has a degree in Music, Grade 8 classical guitar and a full three-octave vocal range (bass G up to top G soprano). All this is TRUE!!

Songs like they used to write
Some people say music has lost its way. Maybe it is time to go Back in time. Predictable chords and melodies do not satisfy everyone. Listen to "Dinosaur," a song with fifteen chords and Beach Boys-style harmonies and you will hear why the element of surprise is a good thing. There are also Baroque influences - or what Lord Jangle calls
Baroque 'n roll. This unusual development can be heard on several songs, namely Holy Moses,
Walk in the Rays of the Sun and Baby Red.

His Lordship is presently engaged with making comedy music videos. Comedy is much more sharable on social media, and as a result he hopes to achieve a viral video. This should bring attention to his more serious side, although if you observe carefully, you will notice that Lord Jangle is never too serious about anything.
