A MUSICIAN who started out busking before earning a £1 million record deal has made his major label debut.
For many years Si Cranstoun entertained shoppers in Croydon town centre, but he's now hoping to make an impression on millions more, as today he's released his album 'Modern Life', backed by industry giants Warner Music.
Radio 2 DJ Chris Evans, who invited Si to play on his show in August, described him as combining "a squeeze of the Bee Gees, a bit of Billy Joel, a dash of Dean Friedman, and a ripple of Rodriguez".
The Advertiser caught up with the singer-songwriter in August, after he appeared on Evans' breakfast show, an experience he described as "surreal".
He said he was "really proud" of the record because "there's not one duff tune on there."
