Steve Watts. AKA. Wingtip

Wingtip is a writer of unique songs and poems that strike chords with the static and erratic humdrum love and noise

of this crazy and often wonderful 21st century life.

Having played in many bands, enslaved to recording and production deals with

companies that lack the drive and enthusiasm of the hungry Artists they represent

WingTip decided to teach himself Music Technology and bought himself a Macintosh Computer

he now works mainly at home on a Mac Mini Core 2 Duo using Logic Studio 9.

Wingtip Studios plan is to record a series of Albums both Solo and in collaboration with other musicians

WingTip will continue to upload Songs, Poems and Artwork

to this web site for free download.

Philip E. Hardy & Colin Lynch.

music notes

With 'MOONCHILD' WingTip has written and produced an excellent song

that is the product of sheer skill, inspiration and imagination,

An Album would be a delight to review and I believe this Artist deserves nothing less !

Colin Lynch - besonic.com

'IN THE NOW' has a slightly offbeat psychedelic melody with abstract lyrics,

the tight lean production caught my ear, A highly original track in sound and vocal style

and featuring vocal effects reminiscent of Sympathy For The Devil by the rolling Stones.
