About Me

Music has been been my main leisure interest for almost as long as I can remember. I started learning to play guitar in my teens, but have always been drawn to songwriting more than playing. It took me a long time to get around to joining a band, but being in The Teeth has helped my songwriting to flourish - and learning how to contribute to other band members' songs is a real buzz too. Our music is not as prog oriented as I'd like... but we're getting there (especially now that we have added a keyboard player).Other interests? Family and friends of course; sci-fi and fantasy; history; psychology.

Books:

I'm a bit of a sci-fi and fantasy geek. I particularly like Steven Erikson's Malazan series - the first fantasy series to rival Tolkien in terms of its complexity, and in lots of ways a much scarier, messier, believeable place.

Heroes:

Eugene de Beauharnais
