Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I've been writing songs with serious intent for the last ten years building up a wide ranging repertoire of material - hence the use of this page for the overspill.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I play live at open mic events in and around Preston UK -this gives me the chance to roadtest the songs with just guitar and vocal.
Your musical influences
I'm influenced by the great songwriters, and I would cite 'Wichita Lineman' as performed by Glen Campbell and 'Do You Know The Way to San Jose' as performed by Frankie Goes To Hollywood as major foundation stones in where I want to get to.
What equipment do you use?
12 string guitars, vocals, lead guitars and synths as needed.
Anything else?
If you like any of these songs and need them for your act then please get in touch.
