About Me

Hello, thanks for dropping in.
I won’t blah on and on, if you need to know more I’m sure you’ll find out! It’s amazing how much text people have on their pages innit? "...my earliest memory is...my first cat was called...blah blah blah".
All you need to know is I’m a singer and i write songs (among other things). I been at it a while and I still love it (despite the inordinate amount of bullshitters that are attracted to the industry and the fact that it’s not usually musicians that make money out of music).
I’ve been lucky enough to have have been signed to some cool labels (Creation Records, Poptones, Positiva, Inferno and Platipus) and I’ve worked with cool and (mostly) un-bullshitty people (McGee, Mad Professor, Timo Maas, Matt Darey, Youth, Stephen Hague).
I’m working on a few things at the moment, in particular The Joys of Sound with the very talented and fabulous Tam Saunders. I’d call it electro-pop-ska....make of that what you will! We will have a page up soon, so come back and check it out!
