  • Bio

    .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. I have been hypnotised by music from an early age. I was always asking who I was listening to and what they were singing or playing about. As time passed my inquisitiveness and fascination would take a practical direction. Now I play guitar, drums, bass, piano, keys, harmonica, banjo and I have recently been trying out the sitar... ..For the last five years I have been writing, recording and performing alone, thickening my sound with a loop station. Ideally I would love a band to bounce ideas off and have others to create with. .. ..Music to me is a necessity. I have to play, I have to perform, I have to create. If I didn't, my head would explode... ..Where do I get my influences? Quality music. Classical for long sweet melodies. Soul for that grunt of power and heart stopping quality. Hip-Hop for original rhymes and lyrical finess. Folk for that gentle push into a great mood, a prod in the right direction... ..Music starts and finishes every one of my days. I eat and sleep songs, melodies, lyrics and sounds... ..Check me out live and you'll go away pleased you took the time to keep music live... ..My independantly produced Debut album "Unity" is now available on iTunes, Amazon & Napster. .. .... .. .... .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .... .. .. ..
