Born on 10 November 1981 in Scunthorpe but now living in Manchester, Stephen Fretwell is a singer songwriter. After testing the water with several big name producers, Stephen decided to produce his debut album himself and Magpie was recorded at Abbey Road studios. This debut album from the Salford-based singer/songwriter is very infectious with echoes of Dylan throughout: he writes music that you don't mind having stuck in your head.
