Artist description Richard Maryon - Guitar, piano, arrangement and backing vocals. Nigel Groves - Lead Vox, keyboards, programming. Two English guys developing and recording strong, story-centric alternative pop. The verses are always mindful. The choruses are always catchy. And the music is always innovative. Their songs are varied, no two are ever the same, or even similar, but they are all moulded by British culture and society. Nigels intricate vocal styling and Richards mastery of the guitar underpin their entire repetoire. Many songs have contributions from other great musicians such as pianist Michael Auld and Saxophonist Claire Roberts.

Music Style Thought provoking pop

Artist History Richard and Nigel formed "Charm" in 1996. At the time this was more of an experimental project than a band, but they both soon realised that their creative talents complemented one another and indeed the whole was far more than the sum of the parts. Their creativity seemed endless and unstoppable. Their first Album "Gazebo" was released late in '97 to much critical acclaim. The track "Washing Machines" was particularly popular, to the surprise of both Nigel and Richard. It seemed the mellow guitar picks and cutting lyrics touched the hearts of listeners across the globe. In early 1999 they released their second album "Farther Ahead" under the new band name of "Pyjama Charm". The title was a play on words, it described how the band had moved on from the first album, but also at the time both Nigel and Richard were soon-to-be dads. NEWS: The new album "10 Stories Hi!" is finished! Should be available for download and purchase soon.
