About Me

"You write in the morning, you write at night. You write in a taxi, in the bathtub, or in an elevator. And, after the song is all finished it may turn out to be very bad, but you sharpen your pencil and try again. A professional songwriter has his mind on the job all the time." Irving Berlin"Billie Holiday meets Beth Gibbon in a dark alley, possibly sharing sambucca." Alex from the days

Influences: well i have been lucky enough to be compared to some of the most beautiful voices in music however i do not really understand comparisons... i suppose it makes it marginally easier to describe to people what my music sounds like, when you have something to compare it to.
