About Me

Hi! I'm a London based keyboard player in my 20's, availible for gigs, sessions...the songs you can hear I'm on Hammond organ and piano. There are four songs with Sam Hare and Soul Junction, written by Sam and recorded at rimshot studios in may last year, on a C3 that used to belong to Chris Stainton - joe cocker, eric clapton might I add! And two as a duo with Frank White recorded live in Sheffield last Christmas eve. Also check out the videos of me playing a few bits of New Orleans style piano stuff. Im origionally from Sheffield and spent several years giging mostly around the north with blues and rock n roll bands, notably 'the frank white band' -a bit of a yorkshire legend who's been around since the 60's and is the best musician I know. I'm currently involved in several projects in London including blues and soul based bands and pop sessions, but I'm always open to offers! I also teach privately. I'm down the blues bar on kingly street in soho most mondays for the jam run by Sam Hare if you fancy a pint and a chat, and some kick ass music!!
