About Me

I've been in many bands and played with some great musicians over the years. They include John Bonham, Jim Capaldi and Steve Broughton on drums, Pete Tolson, Tom Nordon and Lee Evans on Guitar. German drumming greats include Wölli Rhode, Christian Evans and Hansi Behrend. I've had a number of my own bands, covering many styles from jug band and acoustic guitar duo to Jazz-funk and country-rock bands. I've written songs that have been recorded by Sally Oldfield, Justin Hayward and Peter Maffay. My recent exploits with Hip-Hop composition and production include the first single release by the notorious Sido. And, guess what, I'm still having fun.
