About Me


Myspace Layout Generator by TheMyspaceLayout.com
ABOUT ME:
i grew up in a concrete jungle, hanging out on rooftops and stairwells, getting into all sorts of trouble, and never quite fitting in. back then i blamed the red hair for making me stick out from the crowd, that and my big mouth... i went on to live in big cities and felt comfortable being lost for a while amongst the quirky characters that surrounded me. it was here i began to take my childhood love of singing on to a more serious level.
at uni in london i formed a trip hop band and gigged like crazy for years on end. it was great fun at the time.. living and breathing music 24/7. in 1997 i took the brave move to go solo and concentrated on my own song writing more intensely. two years later, in '99, i stumbled upon this strange and charismatic dreadlocked character, stephan altman, on a tube station platform, and discovered we both had a love of folk and electronica. we worked together for a few years, he became my guitarist, my producer and my friend. the musical chemistry was immense.. we still fight like kids, cuss and shout at each other like brother and sister.. but come up with a beautifully ambient sound, unreflective of either of our feisty characters.
this, my debut album, entitled 'deep blue' reflects the cathartic outpourings of us both, and it is the work i am most proud of! TO BE SELF RELEASED THIS SUMMER!!!!!
