THERE is very little evidence in Chris Jones’ moody sounds and lyrics that he is, in fact, a 13-year-old boy.

At his tender age, Jones, who performs as the one-man band These Brittle Bones, has already released a four-track EP.

He is hard at work on a full-length album with producer Leonard Soosay and has a management contract with ATC Management, run by Radiohead’s manager Brian Message.

This Friday, he plays at Home Club alongside local acts Inch Chua & The Metric System and Pleasantry.

Originally from Wales but based in Singapore for four years now, Jones has been writing songs since he was about seven or eight.
