About Me

I'm a singer songwriter multi- instrumentalist who has been traveling around the world mostly alone for over six years. I began recording my music myself with bottom end equipment until I crossed paths with Unicorn studio owner/ recording engineer/ producer Eric Young one night in a bar. I quickly became his main client and over thirty songs were recorded. I picked fifteen for my first album "Nothing Personal" backed by a gifted cast of twelve professional musicians from different parts of the world. Nothing Personal is my journal put to music.
