Biography

Gareth Icke is a singer/songwriter from the Isle of Wight.

His debut album ‘It gets worse at night’ was released in 2009 through Icon Records.

The 10 track album was recorded and produced by Dan Swift (Kasabian, Snow Patrol, Aqualung) and received great reviews upon its release.

The album has just been released on iTunes, Amazon, Play etc in both the USA and Europe.

Gareth Ickes second album, 'A Brand New Battle' was released in 2012 on Eromenos Media to critical acclaim, his latest release is the single 'What's Love Without Meaning' out on CD and as an iTunes download.

What the critics said .....

"his voice is both soothing and plaintive and moves most powerfully when the music falls back into the quietude of simple guitar picking for accompaniment; creating the kind of ambivalent tension reminiscent of a Lord Byron poem or a David Sedaris essay. Even when he's singing about the kind of loneliness that gets worse at night, there's a strange hopefulness in his voice that reassures things will all work out alright in the end." - Jasmine Anderson , Biocritics

“The problem with being a failed musician is that whenever you find yourself listening to pure talent you feel jealous and perhaps a little nauseous as you realize that you’ll never be that good. As a failed musician, when I listen to Gareth Icke, I feel like I’m in the throes of death…..but it’s a happy death.” -Alex Baker, KERRANG!

As well as writing and performing, Gareth is also an International Beach Soccer player. He has earned several caps representing England in front of live TV audiences all over the World.

He has done articles for 442 magazine, the Daily Star and had his music featured on the titles of Nuts TV Beach Soccer show.

Gareth has just completed a 27 mile walk in his pants for The Lewis Mighty Fund and will be doing various charity events this year for Lewis. (www.lewismightyfund.org.uk)...

He has modeled for More Magazine and Virgin Media, as well as presenting Virgins Bestival coverage.
