On The Radar: Gaz Brookfield

Location : Bristol

Intelligence : By now, we all know what to expect at Christmas: the same five songs in every shop, briefly joined by a hastily assembled X Factor finalist's effort to top the festive charts. While most of us accept it, Bristol based singer-songwriter Gaz Brookfield isn't content to sit idly by and watch Cowell and co continue their unchallenged chart domination. His new single Diet Of Banality is a folk-pop swipe at all things manufactured, a paean to musicians who write their own songs and control their own destinies, and a catchy foot stomper to boot.

"I'm just trying to give people the option of buying a single at Christmas time that doesn't exist solely to generate money for corporate record companies," says Gaz. "I've had number of folk say to me that they think that song would make a good Christmas single. I know it's not going to be number one, and I doubt it will even chart, but even if that happens it kind of proves the point of the song anyway. It's just a bit of fun really, but with a serious message."
