Born in 1960, Wellington, New Zealand. My father was a pianist and teacher, so I was taught piano from a young age.
Beethoven was the first serious music I learned, so I decided to do something with a modern twist, and turned out "Rock Over the Moonlight".
My many influences include Led Zep, Uriah Heep, Jimmy Hendrix, Jeff Beck, Jan Hammer, Al Dimeola, Chick Corea, John McLaughlin, Stanley Clarke, Jaco Pastorius, and several hundred more great artists.
