About Me

MyGen Profile GeneratorAs this is my personal page aswell as my 'Artist' page, i'll tell you a little bit about myself first.

Im 28, a vegetarian, an optimist with crippling bouts of pessism, and live in Bristol, England. This page is a work in progress, as are the songs i write as it try to find my feet as an artist and really figure out what being an artist means to me.

Since my first gig at 17, music has been the constant in my life. Its been behind every milestone and every decision Ive made. I have been performing my Solo material in and around the UK for the last year and played my first albeit very short USA dates recently.

I wrote and recorded my first set that became the 'The Standing Sleep EP' (at Bandit studios, Devil sold his soul, Fireapple red, Sleepshow) back in September, and am working on new songs all the time

Be nice to me at shows and buy me drinks. x
