About Me

I started playing music around the time of the fall of William Hague. It was an ironic surprise to find he would only rise again. I play music using guitar, harmonica and words. I spent two years in a musical training school in southern Portugal called The Iberian Center for Furniture Moving and Guitar Playing. After I completed a degree in furniture moving, i used my new skills to move a guitar back to London. I sailed back in a vessel manned by me and three others. We were hit by a wave off the coast of Brighton, two of the crew lost the use of their tongues, and me and the final crew member swam back to shore later followed by my guitar; that washed up two days later. While my instrument was to damaged to play I aren't money juggling at old peoples homes, though eventually turned to crime. With the money i made from juggling and crime i repaired my guitar. Then using a harmonica i had earned with crime i made some songs. I played these songs with a small folk trio i'd made earlier that year. With the dream line up of Earl 'finger wailin'' Johnson and Bobby 'got no shoes' no shoes I started playing mine and bobby's songs. We made millions, though we lost everything, including Bobby's shoes, on a fateful Danish winter. With Bobby in Iraq and Earl spending his days creating proverbs at the back of Cafe Nero in Clapham Junction, i decided to go solo. I currently am believed to be living in Brighton, though have been spotted four times in London.
