About Me

sometime musician, licensing manager for Weekender Records. I spend most of my time between Glasgow, London and Osaka but home is where the record player is...... I'm left handed and play guitar right handed, but one day i hope to wake up right handed and play guitar left handed. I've played with BMX Bandits, Captain America and Eugenius and travel, play and work to meet like minded souls

My Interests

music, experiencing the world anew, very fresh air,the beautiful game, spending time with nearest and furthest. altering states...climbing the quiet mountains

I'd like to meet:

you in this life me in the next life and you in the next life if we can't bear to be parted after this life
