I have been playing and writing for years, but its only in the past year that I've returned to recording. I have loads of stuff on 4-track cassette but the quality of the recordings isn't up to much. At present I am recording more recent songs in my home studio and working through the backlog.
Why this name?
Its my name - what can I say?
Do you play live?
Its been a while, but once the kids are a little older I'd like to play a few local gigs.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Its a great step forward. OK, the big guys fear they will be ripped off, but for the rest of us its a way of gaining some feedback.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I'm not sure it works like that anymore. My kind of music is probably better suited to a small label........but if the call comes.........
Your influences?
John Hiatt, Neil Young, Neil Finn, Shawn Colvin, Joni Mitchell, Paula Cole, James Taylor, Hothouse Flowers, The Blue Nile, Roddy Frame, Warren Zevon - in other words, great songswriters.
Favorite spot?
Loch Torridon, in the North West of Scotland.
Equipment used:
Emax Sampler, CZ-5000 synth, Washburn D26 Acoustic Guitar, Fender Stratocaster, Tanglewood Rebel 4K Bass Guitar, Gibson Country 12 string guitar, Cubase and N-Track Sequencers, loads of software synths, drum machines and various outboard effects.
