JOHNNY HALF A DAY

I'm Johnny half a day I'm here to play

Punk rock till my dying day

Half a day I'm Johnny half a day.

I'm a southern boy In a Northern town

It'll be my final resting ground

I've taken this place to heart like a body part

And when the night comes round I'm in the bar

Playing my 3 chords on my guitar

With the waifs and strays I call my friends

The music and the beer it never ends

Little Terry is an ex punk band guitarist, garage band lead vocalist and ska band guitarist/vocalist From Doncaster England who had had enough of being in bands and decided to go solo with his electro-acoustic geetar . Tez writes songs about Life, Science Fiction, war, love, peace, supermarkets, drunkards, the environment, corrupt politicians, stealing drinks, Bullying, jealousy, Newspaper stories and everything else in-between, he gets angry, soppy, melancholic, wishful, doubtful, happy, silly and bashful in equal measures he primarily uses Folk Country and Punk, occasionally laced with a dash of Reggae, Ska, pop and rock n roll when the mood so takes him, he puts in a shift on his live shows with energetic performances every time.

Tez has stacked up some notable support slots in his career supporting the likes of Rancid, Captain Sensible, Glen Matlock, Splodgenessabounds, Tenpole Tudor, and TV Smith playing such legendary venues as Nottingham Rock City, The Marquee London (twice) and Sheffield O2.Tez has played the field so to speak at festivals near and far playing Beautiful days bandstand numerous times, Breaking bands festival, Nice and Sleazy festival, HRH Punk Festival and  Holidays in the Sun festival to name just a few, He’s just been confirmed for ‘Here for the Music’ festival in Devon 2021 (pandemic pending) he’s even popped over to France  for small bar gigs in the Cherbourg area a time or two. Lockdown has found Little Terry busy playing various online festivals for JMW promotions, Breaking bands festival and Punk 4 the Homeless as well as his own FB Live sessions and various open mics.

 Keeping with the D.I.Y Punk ethic Tez has recorded 2 CD studio albums and 1 live album on his own label, he creates, prints and manufactures each CD personally. His latest Album ‘Fur and Medication’ is available to buy at gigs, Bandcamp and Facebook. All Tez’s songs and videos can be found on Reverbnation, Bandcamp, Soundcloud, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Youtube where you will also find a few free downloads if you’re lucky?

Tez prides himself on keeping his  songs simple and catchy there are no fiddly intricate finger picking styles here neither are there any wine glass shattering F# descending x-factor vocal athletics on parade either, he hates that sort of thing plus he can’t do them anyway. He will also always throw a cover or two in his live sets, everybody from Slade to the Ramones have been given the Little Terry acoustic punk treatment, Johnny Cash, the Clash and the Pogues have all been given a little Terry make over from time to time, even songs from his past bands and mates bands you probably don’t know are covers have been included in Tez’s energetic sometimes frantically paced gigs.
