single audio channel
Single Audio Channel is an exciting new music project by singer-songwriter Glynn Hayward, who has beautifully captured the essence of a bygone era of the 90s britpop scene while remaining firmly rooted in the present. This emerging indie pop band from Bath, UK, is recognized for its jangly guitars and irresistibly catchy tunes, embodying the spirit of indie rock.
In the 90s, Glynn was the singer/guitarist in a three-piece melodic punk band from Bristol called The Curfew. Later in the 2000s, he fronted the punk covers band Stiff Little Bristols for over a decade.
After experiencing hearing loss in one ear, Glynn stepped back from music and founded a children’s digital agency called Complete Control, named after a song by The Clash, focusing on creating games and apps for children's brands. His most recent television and animation project involved creating a mixed media music TV series for CBeebies titled Nick Cope's Popcast, where he served as Series/Creative Director.
Now, Glynn is revisiting his passion for music with Single Audio Channel—a name that reflects his hearing issue of only being able to hear from one ear. He is looking forward to releasing and promoting his debut album, 'My Beloved Friend.'
