Are you singing?

About Me

I's singing all kinds of music, mainly blues, with rock, soul, jazz n acoustic. Jammin' around South West London/Surrey (after nagging from peeps). Enjoying the fun and challenges of that with some fine musicians and people. I think it's really important to support emerging talent and I'm happy to promote that.

We're KEEPIN IT LIVE thanks to all the supportive musicians, vocalists and public at Cardinal Wolsey,Grove Tavern,The Nelson,Red Lion,Surbiton Flyer,Vibe,Windsor Castle,and The Woodman.

Movies:

Sea Biscuit - couple of hours of feelgood soppy bravery. Don't do horror or violence so Hot Fuzz is about my limit. Eddie Izzard anytime, and Carl Donnelly should be snapped up to make a film.

Television:

Jools Holland, Channel 4 rock and docs, Panorama team stuff - but especially anything by film maker Roger Graef.

Books:

Billie Holiday and other biographies - I'm interested in people. Long list of others in the psychosocial arena but too long for here - I'm not really that intellectual, honest, just averagely curious about the world we live in!

Heroes:

Kim and Aggie ... lemons have changed my life. I used to dump them after a few gin and tonics but, well, everyone deserves a chance. But seriously, anyone who has a genuine and sincere interest in using their energy to make a positive difference.
