Actor and musician Captain Backfire aka Robert Guilbert studied at LIPA and regularly plays gigs in the Liverpool area. He was kind enough to drop us an email asking if we would feature a short article on him and we gladly obliged. Find below Captain Backfire's bio for your viewing pleasure
I started playing music because of the album Take This To Your Grave by Fall Out Boy in my bedroom in Peterborough. I'd always considered music to be for people who studied it in school but when I heard about how they'd just started a band in their garage it made me feel like maybe I could to.
I've always been an actor as my main profession and I went on to study acting at Paul McCartney's Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts while there I met loads of different kinds of musicians and learnt a lot more about music and started gigging more regularly and seriously.
I left Liverpool when I finished and moved to London and have gigged regularly ever since. I've recorded three ep's two with Clark Phillips at Hyencide Productions and one with Lorin Perry at BasementBox Productions. I am currently working on material for some major label artists and films with Freak On The Line (www.soundcloud.com/
My acting credits include Gulliver's Travels with Jack Black and Sky's new show (2012) Sinbad.
I've got gigs coming up on the 26th of September headlining Camden Proud Galleries and 5th of October at Camden Head. Anybody can listen to and DL all my stuff for free on my SoundCloud.
