Artist Bio
Olle Jinks is a naturally talented 19 year old singer/songwriter from Truro, Cornwall. Olle started writing music early in 2009 after teaching himself to play guitar. Although very early in Olle’s music career, he has received much praise for his live performances and "contemporary twists" of the covers he performs. Olle is a gifted song writer and has great presence that is sure to capture the audience; his fans have said they feel like they know his songs after only a few listens and find themselves subconsciously singing them regularly.
His music has been described as quirky Indie/Folk/Pop. Olle finds influence from
bands and artists such as Mumford And Sons, Ellie Goulding, Sam Isaac, Taylor Swift, and most recently Ed Sheeran. The popular covers in his sets include songs from Paramore, Katy Perry, Greenday, Train, and of course Ed Sheeran for which he is best known, just to name just a few!
In November 2010 Olle entered Pirate Fm's Xmas Factor and finished runner-up, this gave Olle the confidence needed to start writing and performing more seriously.
He has since joined forces with experienced and very talented guitarist Matt Finch of ‘She Whispered Treason’. His gifted guitar playing complements Olle’s distinct vocals, making them an exciting duo. They are currently writing the new EP together so watch this space
Olle has recently written and recorded his debut E.P (Live and Acoustic). Olle Jinks is certain to be a recognised name in the music scene so be sure to listen to his material on his music page on Facebook, or his website at www.contempmusic.co.uk . You will find both Olle’s live debut E.P along with some demos for the new cube recorded EP due for release in April 2012! :)
Most recently Olle was nominated (Hitting the right note in 2011) for best male act of Cornwall 2011 and finished runner up alongside Thom Weeks, Ben Howard, Patrickjamespearson and the Winner: Ruarri Joseph, this was a great end to 2011 and we look forward to an even better 2012.

Tom Gall
Tom Gall started writing songs at 15, at 17 he finally decided to play his songs outside of the bedroom and try to make something out of music. Based in Falmouth, Tom has been lucky enough to gig all over Cornwall. His mix of acoustic guitar and honest, straight to the point lyrics have been well received online and at live music venues. Releasing 'Lost In An Evening" his first EP in September 2011, still only 18, Tom has been "hotly tipped" for 2012.
