Artist: Ricky Warwick 
   Title: Belfast Confetti
   Label: DR2 Records

From his time with New Model Army and The Almighty the name of Ricky Warwick has been associated with some massive Hard Rock songs, but there is more to the man than driving guitar riffs and raspy angst filled vocals as his new solo album 'Belfast Confetti' shows.  This is yet another poignant release from Warwick who delves back to his early days as a young boy in Newtownards, Northern Ireland. 

The album is a real joy to listen to as Warwick displays a real knack for the acoustic with this album and still there is that familiar angst that was always been a big part of The Almighty sound, only this time it's brought down to an acoustic level.

He has always been a social commentator in his lyrics and this album is no different, although the unplugged Warwick can tell a soulful tale and put it to music like no other.

With great tracks like ‘Throwing Dirt’, ‘The Arms Of Belfast Town’ and the excellent ‘Hanks Blues’, the album will show there’s more to Warwick with a few Irish dates lined up to promote the album.  Warwick again shows he can bring it to the people either on the big stage or in this case in smaller intimate venues, so get one out there and get up close and personal with this man and his music.
