Less is more...more or less.

About Me

Just writing songs, recording them and giving them a live airing. Had some nice gigs from time to time....supported Eric Taylor, David Olney, Glen Tilbrook, Ricky Warwick, Brendon Croker, Midge Ure and Martin Carthy coming up. Would like to do more touring and have a sniff about! I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
