Self Taught, composer/performer/producer.Started playing guitar aged 14 with my best mate David and together we did the usual thing... Learnt 'The Jean Geanie' and The House of The Rising Sun' and decided we wanted to be Rock Gods..Was already into Pink Floyd and so of course started a 'white' reggae' band THIN LINE, Way before The Police and even UB40 and did a bit of gigging locally mainly to our friends..Have had a number of bands and personel configurations since but not played live for a while. I promised myself the next time I did I'd have a roadie..Have been working with singers and doing the odd film score ever since..Put togerther my home studio starting with an Atari.. (remember those?) and now all digital. (could rant on about ADAT and harmonic resonance but I have a life..)I've a large portfolio of stuff that obviously I can only offer a peak at here. I have a purpose built site under construction to showcase my minstrations but in the meantime..Enjoy!
