Zincfreud: alias of singer/songwriter Bruce Hurst. This again is an alias of Bruce Richmond-Hurst who has doubled barrelled his original name of Richmond, with that of  his wife's maiden name. He has used Bruce Hurst and Zincfreud in several social and media websites,in order to promote his music and lyrics. He's never been a professional performer as such, but rather a good amateur.His material is characterised by it's often dark social comment and realism.Live appearances have been fairly rare.He has never been a star or in any public spotlight, there have been no hit records or TV or radio or media coverage. Despite his age around 51 and his complete lack of notoriety, he has started to appear as a minor blip on the radar with his arrival on the Net. The first upload was a video on Youtube of him singing a song called Living In Between with lyrics that present the point of view of a British welfare claimant and takes a satirical snipe at the UK chatshow host, Jeremy Kyle notorious for his controversial daytime TV show. Hurst actually categorises it as the Jeremy Kyle song.The video is a sofa performance with him playing and singing the song. He uses the name Zincfreud on his Youtube channel. The song also appears with several others, on Myspace UK under the name of Bruce Hurst. The video has also appeared on the WorldNews.com website although there is no obvious sign it is of News interest. Bruce Hurst aka Zincfreud has launched around 14 songs, together with photos etc. on various websites. He even blogs and Tweets and is rather opinionated particularly politically. The singer plays in two duos one called the Rich List with the Welsh Music scene musician Gary Richardson, this is the main platform of Hurst's music. They play in the Gwynedd area of North Wales in the UK, rarely venturing out of the region. They did however, perform Living In Between in Oxford Street's 100 Club, London along with several other songs,as part of a short set to a bewildered gathering of guests at a private party. The duo used The Rich List name and Hurst called himself Bruce Richmond. Oddly enough, Zincfreud calls himself Bruce Richmond in the other duo, in which he's a member of, called The Fairplay Musicians.They specialise in mainly Folk Music(jigs, reels and ballads.) They provide entertainment for the Elderly in the Gwynedd and Ynys Mon areas of North Wales. This is probably how Hurst makes a living. the other member of the duo is Jan Hurst(not his wife.) They are related. She is a celiah musician and Morris dancer and wrote the the folk dance classic, The Weasel's Revenge. Bruce Hurst has played in a band called Sandstone Candy/Kusp. They were based in Chester, they were very short lived (1995). It is also apparent that Bruce Hurst has had some sort of connection with The 60s band Thunderclap Newman, but not as a player. He 1st called himself Zincfreud when he issued a co-written song called The Ultimate Pavanne, on a website called Poffle.com
