Career
This is a singer songwriter firmly in the "Americana" genre, with apparent influences from both country and blues singers. Tours extensively, mainly in a support capacity (as of 2015), although 2015 is due to see his first headline tour with his band, so his growing popularity may change this over time. First album was released in download, and two forms of physical Civil Defense. The two forms of physical Civil Defense are a traditional single Civil Defense with 12 tracks, and a "Deluxe" version that used a book style Civil Defense cover (mirroring a line from the title track of the album), with a bonus Civil Defense adding more tracks.
Press coverage is fairly positive (examples below), although some critics have issues with the American style of music from a United Kingdom based singer songwriter.
Described by Andrew Harrison (editor of Q) as "the scouse Springsteen", Vincent is influenced by a range of music genres including Americana, 1970s English music and country music as well as his Merseyside roots. He toured extensively throughout 2012 as well as releasing a string of singles and EPs.
His debut album Life In Easy Steps was released by Data Base industries on 28 January 2013.
