I was born in Redditch on 30th June 1990. I moved Southwards to North Devon at the age of thirteen and am now studying A-levels in Music, Art, Physics and English Literature. I hope to pursue music as a career. I play the Double Bass as my first instrument. I started in year 7ish. I decided to learn Double Bass when I visited New York for the first time. I went round loads of Jazz clubs with my mother and a Jazz singer from Harlem, and the Double Bassist stood out every time. There was no ponsy widdly showing off involved, just solid playing upon which everyone else had to lean. I liked that, and still do.

I am many things. As a general rule I try to get on with everyone. I am not overly prejudiced and try to give everyone a chance. I am not a pre-Raphaelite (I am not pale, do not eat oysters and keep my clothes on.)
I love music. I love art.
I love New York and travelling abroad but hate getting there. I hate airports because they are sticky-floored and I am xenophobic. I love languages and wish I could speak French.
I am open-minded. I am a devoted atheist and will never denounce my faith until something better comes along. I will believe anything if it can be proved. Presently, I do not believe in religion or theism. I believe life is what you make it.
I love playing music. I play guitar in every spare minute I am not playing double bass, bass guitar or piano. I love my instruments. My guitars are my friends. I play bass for K21 and double bass in the North Devon Sinfonia and North Devon String Orchestra. If I'm not playing, discussing, recording or writing music, I'm listening to it.
I'm playing bass and guitars with Tributes On TV and I'm doing a series of live streaming gigs with This Window in Germany and Los Angeles at the moment.
I also play lead guitar with a ska band now! They're called 2ft Heroes.
I love good modern art. You have to check out JASPER GOODALL. I cannot give this guy enough credit for his work but it is fantastic. He's had jobs doing all the single artwork for Muse's Black Holes and Revelations era. It's so good, people are plaigarising it, so go to www.jaspergoodall.com and support him, not the arsehole plaigarists like some Italian guy called DolceQ and me. Keep art original and stop stealing ideas (I'm such a hippocrite).
www.jaspergoodall.com from Mattt Bellamy. They are by no means as good as they were in 2003. It shows that all good things come to an end. I thought they'd always be incredible. They still are, just not AS incredible. Muse will always be the band I grew up listening to, though. An incredible experience, but not as good as the NEC the first time around. It was more spontaneous and exciting then. They had to earn their money.
That pretty much sums me up
Thank you for having me. Thank you, thank you. I hope you enjoy my space.
