In about 1990 I set up a band called "My sweat fear" which started with myself on guitar, vox and song writing duties, Colette, vocals and sex appeal and Nigel on lead guitar, every thing else was done on sequencers. At this stage of the band we recorded a single called "Gold Rush" which got a bit of radio play. We then added a bass player Nick and a Drummer called Dave and played many gigs around London. My partner of the time Ann Symonds and I set up a record company called "Shade Factor productions" to take things to the next level. After a change of drummer and the departure of Colette we recorded an LP called "fate goes on". This was when we got the first taste of the real music industry when our promotions company took our money and 500 CD singles promising much but did very little, Nigel found the CD's on a market a few weeks later so promotion we did not get. Our best bit of luck came when we managed to get our posters plastered all over the brand new fish and ship shop in an episode of "East Enders" which got the phones ringing more than anything we had previously tried. Unfortunately the band split up shortly afterward which was a shame as we had become pretty good. Since then I have been playing many solo gigs and writing loads of music but letting the day jobs take over too much. If you like my music let me know, you will inspire me and therefore be part of the music!
