About Me

2003: Bought accordion.
2004: Joined pirate-pop band Scarlet's Well .
2005: Quit job working in an Evil Castle, contributed to Bjork's 'Army Of Me' album and recorded two solo albums.
2006: Toured UK with 'The Book Club'. Joined regular line-up of BBC2's 'The Culture Show'.

Here I am on stage with Tim Minchin and Ali MacGregor at the 2006 Edinburgh festival. This band, "The Lovely Band" was formed on the spot to give the audience something to watch in the umpteenth hour of Mark Watson's 36 hour marathon show. This must have been about 3am. I have rarely been happier on stage:
