The songs and music
KENNY HERBERT is an Edinburgh songwriter who has been working on the music scene for many years having been inspired throughout his life by the music of Paul McCartney. Over the years he has always written and recorded original music and insists the reward is being able to write and perform new material that people can enjoy and relate to. Along with his solo writing Kenny has co-written with various writers including 'Pilots' David Paton, Scottish Guitar legend Rab Howat and one of the UK's top soul jazz artistes, the London based brilliant Ola Onabule. He has tried to keep all his music as honest as possible with timeless melodies and lyrics written from the heart. From the music he has written and recorded over the years he has built up a catalogue of songs, some of which are previewed and available to buy on this site.
Kenny says—"My latest album 'ALL OF MY DAYS' was recorded by David Paton and through his support and musical talent I have completed an album of self penned songs that I am really proud of. Again, these are all heartfelt compositions written and performed because of my own experiences in life. Over the years recording with Davie in Denia, Spain, Abbey Road 2, London and in my hometown of Edinburgh has been a real joy and the fulfilment of a life long ambition, long may it continue".

DAVID PATON first came to be noticed as the lead singer and writer in 'Pilot' writing No.1 hit songs including 'Magic' and 'January', then going on to collaborate with various major artists such as Kate Bush, The Alan Parsons Project and Paul McCartney. He also completed years of touring the world and recording as bass guitarist with Elton John, including playing at 'Live Aid' in '85. Along with working with Kenny, David is currently continuing to produce his own material and also write and sing with Japanese band 'Beagle Hat' whilst still managing to fit in sell out gigs in Australia and Japan.

Recording New songs with Davie Paton and the Caves Gig on February 29th 2008

Rab and Myself have started recording with Davie Paton again(a new song ‘Universal friend to society’) we are now going for a slightly different sound on our new material, but ultimately it will still be melodic and up to oor producer who we have complete faith in!!.

Rab, Davie and myself visited a musician pal of ours named George Burton (a great writer and player from through the west, who is mastering his new Album down in Abbey Road) check out applebeat.com. We threw about some ideas for another of our new songs called ‘If you don’t have love’ (inspired by a Jose Marinio interview)and we are now going back into the studio with Davie Paton who is going to produce a finished version of this one with George on BV’S. Both these songs and other classics were heard live on Friday 29th February in a sell out gig in ’The Caves’ with Raff supporting us, a great night was had by all who played and all who came to enjoy the music. George Burton joined us on stage for a good few songs and The great ‘Glendos‘ John and Johnny took care of the lights and recorded music which again was excellent. Thanks to everyone who came along to hear us!!! Then Sunday 2nd March at a Marie Curie Charity Gig in The Royal Musselburgh which again was great fun and raised £5,000 for Edinburgh Sick Kids. We are currently still writing new songs which we will be recording with Davie on a weekly basis throughout this year.
