Peter Bromley’s film ‘Various Songs’ is based around 2 former Creation Records artists. Terry Bickers and Pete Fij. Bickers who hasn’t spoken on camera for years offers us a different side to his known personality in the film. Fij for his part speaks of releasing an album without a major label behind them. Bromley's beautiful film is a unique document of two musicians who are passionate about playing and recording together. The film received its premiere at the Documentary Film Centre in the Museum of Moscow just last month - Cinecity Brighton Film Festival

I make personal films for personal reasons.
I’m aware my films can be boring in parts, but life is at times. As a documentary maker, I’m showing all sides by reflecting that.
But does it have those key elements; story, plot, guest philosopher.
