Singer/Songwriter, originally hailing from Cumbria, Northern England, but living in Cardiff, Wales at the moment.
Raised on Randy Travis and Garth Brooks, and then listened to a whole lot of Bruce Springsteen and Eagles, a bunch of pop, rock, indie and punk, and a lot more country. I've put it all together, added a few splashes of beer and life, and out pops my own music. Don't know how much turns out good though.
Anyhow, hope you enjoy.
Cheers, BenBand/artist history
I started learning guitar when I was 12, and soon I started a band with friends. After a few lineup and name changes over 3 or 4 years we were still terrible so I left. I started to concentrate on singing and songwriting and gradually worked my voice up, while writing better songs than the pap that had previously come out of my pen.
Since then I've just carried on, always trying to improve and find new things to do.Have you performed in front of an audience?Yes, as often as I can, in various venues throughout England and Wales. I love it, it's the best part of being a singer, especially when the audience really likes the show - one of the best feelings in the world.
Your musical influences
Bruce Springsteen, The Eagles, Keith Urban, Brad Paisley, The Storys, Buddy Holly, Waylon Jennings, Ryan Adams, Willie Nelson, Dierks Bentley, pretty much anything musical or interesting that I soaked up in my life...Anything else?
Monkeys are great aren't they? Well I think they are.
