I'm a Music Producer and Songwriter. I started playing in bands at college and was always producing the bands I was in so it was a natural progression which has just followed on...
I was the singer in many bands, Red Handed,Litte Giants, Mainline & Kudor 8, I aslo play Keys,Accordian,Melodian (Outcast Band) and percussion.
I now work with an amazing mix of artists.
I have worked with Nate James co-writing his last single "The Message" reaching no.2 in Japan and also reaching Europe with real success. Selling over 200,000 Albums. I have a cut on the next album a track called "Wonderland" we'll see how it goes when it is released Worldwide.Title music for ITV "This Is David Gest", which was produced & composed by myself James Bourne/David Gest and Chris Leonard. "This Guy Is Crazy".
