oh, I had been thinking LSE with no level of certainty (he reminds me of Billy Bragg who I had also thought LSE for (and yet also thinking he might actually be EIE ), and also David Gilmour somewhat, who @woofwoofl has typed SLI (in the chatbox at least: may not be a concrete typing )

as you can tell, my thinking is somewhat all over the place...hopefully someone else has some thoughts. I certainly think SLI is a good suggestion.
