About Me

PLEASE READ :)"Hello people who happen to drop by my place. I am alias Merz but I don't run this site. A jolly fellow called Leemun does it all. He keeps me posted though and has many good ideas. Hope you can get a gist of what I do from all the stuff on display here. If you wanna ask me something do send a message via myspace or [email protected] but please be very patient with me as i have a backlog of emails which stretch far over the horizons of my laptop. I don't like spending my life gazing at computers! Aaaargh! My wife has recently moved to the Swiss Alps to take up a job which makes me currently abodeless as I am touring this year and stay with her whenever I can. But, in a nutshell, I was born in Dorset, England. Was brought up in West Yorkshire, England. Lived in London, Bristol, Bath, Botswana and Israel and travelled to 52 countries. Always been a working musician. Feast or famine."
