Why this name?
Someone said invent a name...so I did.
Do you play live?
All material is studio based as I work as a songwriter rather than a performer - although I do perform, record and produce all the material I write.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It has created far more opportunities for independent musicians to be heard and to attract a wider audience. It has reduced the need to travel too, many musicians collaborate at an international level via the web.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I would sign a publishing deal if the contract seemed right.
