About Me


I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !
I have been active in the Music industry as a Bass Player, Guitarist and Producer over the last 20 years. My career has been focussed in Black music from Jazz to Hip Hop with session credits that include Soul II Soul, The JBs Horns and George Michael.
I have been involved in the formation of various bands from the London Funk Underground over the years including, Savajazz, Push, Majik Pokit, Hotheads, Vibe Tribe, FM Inc and more!. Recent releases include collaborations with Misty Oldland, 7 Hurtz and George Michael.
I have also been the organiser and promoter for improvised Jam Sessions at various club nights and events including, Hedonism, Superstition, Ashram, Flipside, Camouflage and others.
Check out my music page "Phat Phrequency Productions"-in my friends list!- for music I'm working on.
Currently I Promote Jam night "Show and Prove" (www.showandprove.co.uk) at various London venues. This has been a feature of Londons Club landscape since the late 90s.
I am also a DJ (DJ Source) playing an eclectic blend of Jazz, Psychedelic Soul, Funk, and Roots Reggae. I also play in the Bands "Elia" (www.eliamusic.com) and "Lunatic" (www.myspace.com/lunaticrocks)
