About Me

I was born in London but i spent my teen years in Totnes, Devon. Definitely the best years of my life, bantham, beenleigh, bretherins, and the yard. Musically, i've been playing, singing and writing since i was a kid..my sister has always been the real singing talent in the family so thats helped me out quite a lot. At the moment i'm down in Falmouth studying, playing as much as possible and riding the wild storm:p Pretty funny down here- Kernow style.. Anyway gotta say a thanks to the parents for sure, and the boys for having to put up with my neverending repetoir of love songs:) Hope you enjoy the tunes..
