put the 'wart' in stalwart.
Arnold is currently performing comedy, and preparing to
record a follow up to the acclaimed album 'Unbolted' Reviews
of Unbolted: 'excellent...Robyn Hitchcock meets Billy Bragg'
Leicester Mercury ' A mix of post-Kinkesque lyricism and
country feel, all the tracks are strong and improve with
listening. The strongest tracks for me are Magic Gypsy and
Nothing, both of which sound personal and bring out the
best in Bolt's distinctive voice. Slap Me Down, the final
track, has real energy and is a great ending song. If you
like the Beatles, Kinks, or some new country stuff by the
likes of Slaid Cleaves, then this is for you.'( rating 4/5)
