THE TALENT
STORIES

THE MUSIC

Warren Malone, a New York based singer/songwriter and guitarist, hails from Manchester England. He has played in bars, clubs and yes, even street corners, all over England, Ireland, Europe and The US. In his music you will hear echoes of Hank Williams, Elvis Presley, and Roy Orbison.but his bittersweet and sometimes funny songs are uniquely his own. His new album, And The Ants Ate The Bee, is a dark folk nightmare and is available online at www.warrenmalone.com
