Extremely eclectic and unwilling to be pigeonholed into any genre the main aim for my music is to make something for everyone whether it be a dark song or a light pop song. I, basically, do everything on my songs (with much appreciated help from my co-producer and engineer Seamus Heffernan). Songs with meaning and poignancy are my main goal.
2008 Update- I have moved into Electronica. This genre has definitely enabled me to tap more into rhythms and beats and explore my inner world more.

Why this name?
I like my middle name better than my first! and my surname is kinda cool!
Do you play live?
Would like to play live but aint currently brave enough to do so. Would like feedback on songs first before i brave it in the big wide world!
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It makes it fairer and more free for people to express themselves through music. Music is no longer just for the elite.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Most probably but indie is the way to go at the moment.
Band History:
Initial band name was Death To Sundays but i fell out with all those that were involved over the direction the music was going. I wanted to lighten up!
The First record "Book of Shadows" was recorded at Shamrock Studio at Balderstone.
The Second record "The Nocturnicon" was recorded at home on my Dell laptop computer and has more of a darker feel to it.
The New record "The Bionic I" is my first main foray into electronica and experimental musics.
