am currently percussionist for two bands, Godessa and Teba respectively, but i'm also a producer and artist. My style as an an artist is dancehall and roots music. In addition to being a performing artist, i'm also a selector, specialising in reggae. I however also combine some hip hop, funk, acid jazz, drum 'n bass, african & latino beats into my set to incorporate more people into the vibe mi try fe create. Been a performing artist since 1988 although i only started recording stuff in 2001 with Grenville Williams, who used to be bass player and founder member of the Firing Squad. Firing Squad started out in 1997 and i was lead vocalsit alongside Speedy B (Brent Geduld) and Boogieman (Farrell Adams). The rest of the band consisted of: Bass - Grenville Williams, Drums - Jerome Reynard, Guitar - James Reynard, Keyboards - Riccardo Moretti, Sebastian Voigt. since then I've moved on to become a solo artist but do more work as a dancehall producer and deejay. My mission is to spread the reggae vibe everytime, everywhere and make people feel good about themselves. the more positive we are, the more positive the whole world can become. I'm resident deejay at a club in Cape Town called Zula Soundbar. Catch me there most nights except Fridays and Mondays.
