    The Big Push were together for 5 years. They split up in September last year before Ren went to Canada for his medical treatment. Ren says he would love to get the band together again, as long as the others want to

    Yay!! If you don’t bounce to this, there's something wrong ❤
    The Big Push is another rabbit hole you won't regret. Their live busking sessions are phenomenal. Try their 'I shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop' mash up, or their 'War Pigs' mash from the same session. And their original music is also fab.
    Thanks for this! Bongo Bong made my 8 yo a fan, and he now listens to The Big Push every day. He's a big Ren fan (as are all my kids. Even the hubby ❤)

    Their covers are awesome. But the originals they've done are criminally underrated. Sweet Little Lady, Precious, Dignity, Why My Woman and more. Please go down this rabbit hole. You'll have NO REGERTS!!! 🤣

      And their original Watch Out! My fav version of that is the live one where they were busking and introduced it to the crowd. It was great. I believe it was the same day they did War Pigs and also I Shot the Sheriff/Rd to Zion/Hip Hop.

    Oh my. Next you’ll need to see their busking version of “I Shot The Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop.” Ren is absolutely epic - you don’t even know.
    Next Ren song should be one of his older, melodic songs. How about “Ocean” or “Hold On.” Or if you go even older, he will break your heart with the “It’s Alright” video or “Patience” or “Freckled Angels.” The last one he wrote for his very close friend who had ended his own life.

    They were together about 5 years I believe but their last gig was end of last year due partly because of Rens medical treatment and they’re all soloists and moved around the world.
    Romain Axisa is on uke he’s a fantastic guitarist and singer
    Gorran Kendall on bass, also an amazing travelling folk singer
    Glenn Chambers who isn’t in this one but he’s the drummer for TBP 🖤

    @Aurora-cv5to Рік тому +7

    The sound is just that good when they're busking in the streets. Nothing but cheap amps, mics, etc. No pitch correction, most of them done in a single take. Romain Axisa, the other soloist, is AMAZING. Not only a gorgeous voice, but an incredible guitarist with wonderful tone. Romain is from France but lives/performs in Brighton. Listen to Romain's cover of Blue Moon - stunning. His vocal tone on it sounds like a guitar - can't explain it. Remember when you first heard VP's version of Warriors and how the tone of Layne's violin sounded like a human voice? Like they'd just added another member? Similar, but of course different.
    Yep, keep headed wherever Ren leads you. Big Push, Chinchilla, Sam - whoever he's singing with, you know their talent is off the charts.

      And don't forget the people he recommends! He suggested we listen to Dirt Miller, an American musician, and he blew my mind with his unique sound and outrageous guitar playing. Where Ren goes, Renegades follow!

    Trick the Fox was Rens first band while living in Bath. The Big Push was his Brighton band. After 4 months down the rabbit hole their rendition of "I shot the sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop " from their final busking performance in Brighton 9 months ago closely followed by "Wade in the water/Nina Simone/Trouble so hard" from before lock-down 4 Yrs ago has become my favorit tracks to listen to. Just two outstanding raw and authentic performances !

    At a guess using a Zoom R24 to record. Then the superb sound engineering and producer skills of Ren Gill using automation mixing where he sets the levels and EQ for each channel in automation through a DAW, second by second. With 8 Channel input when this was recorded the Zoom R24 is the obvious source device at this time. For a bit more a cash the Soundcraft UI24 R could do a better job but it is not as portable.
