About Me

I'm a musician/writer/producer originally from Edinburgh but based in NW London since 2001. I spent the past 7 years working with artists such as Mika, Sugababes, Take That, Nelly Furtado, KT tunstall, Beth Orton, Shania Twain, Gareth Gates, Dina Caroll, Peter Andre, Girls Aloud, Gary Kemp, Vanessa Carlton... etc etc! Having realised my lifelong dream of working with Take That there really wasnt much left to live for!!!...But I pulled myself together and Im currently keyboard player with Mika (and having the best time of my life!) and run 'thesetup productions' who look after hot new u.k. band 'kojo'. I have recently finished writing/producing the new album for Laura Critchley which is receiving lots of support from bbc radio2.oh...and im a daddy! baby isabella ann whitmey was born on 16th July 2008! (just 3 days old at time of writing!)
