THIS IS A 10 SONG ALBUM

*** Album download includes bonus '1984' remix by THANKYOUWILLIAM! & Lyric booklet ***

What would happen if you took all the colors in XTC, 10cc, Kevin Gilbert, Human League, Prince, Richard Thompson, Devin Townsend Project, Porcupine Tree, Robert Palmer, King's X, Peter Gabriel & The Sensational Alex Harvey Band (!), and mixed them all together?

Would it inevitably become a steaming pile of funky fudge, or an inventive and curious kaleidoscope of contrasting musical hues? I hope for the latter reaction, but you be the judge: pull down a copy of venice & beethoven, and give both sides of the platter a good listen...

REVIEWS

"[faunch] has the ability to create an ethereal feel, the way Brit pop icons 10cc used to do on songs like 'I’m Not in Love.'”
—Frank Kocher, San Diego Troubadour - Nov '16

“'Man with the Getaway Face' is a sunnyside-up slice of psychedelic pop that might appeal to Robyn Hitchcock fans. An ‘80s synth-pop vibe powers '1984,' whose chorus and vintage synth tones (especially the drums) suggest that it could be appropriate for a period film placement. The artist veers into a more straightahead 4/4 rock & roll mode for 'Bad Influence,' a launchpad for scorching guitar licks. One thing’s clear...he’s having a blast at the mic..."
—Music Conection Magazine - Jun '17

"…[venice & beethoven] comes across as people at the top of their field who are working in a studio with a world-class producer to make music that will be loved and known by millions."
—Kev Rowland, Gonzo Magazine - Aug '17
