My love of music was fired in the late 70’s by a passion for the Beatles and all things punk rock and mod.
Whilst at school I started a punk fanzine, inspiringly titled “The Modern World ‘and got to interview heroes like the Sex Pistols, the Clash and the Jam.
Upon leaving school I became an office boy for Decca records ( probably the least Punk record label imaginable in the Western world at the time ! ) before taking over the telephone receptionist job from a departing Danny Baker at the NME.
From there I joined the UK’s most happnin’ independent plugging company and through them began a stint on London’s Capital Radio ( radio’s youngest DJ at the time, clocking in at a tender 19! ), from then on the world was my oyster ( or so I was told ) with many TV stints including Thames TV’s White Light, Channel 4’s Earsay, Carlton’s The Beat and currently ‘Gary Crowley Presents’ on Rockworld TV/ Sky 368 as well as doing time with radio stations like GLR, XFM and now the BBC station for the capital BBC London 94.9 on Saturday's between 6 and 8pm
I also work as a TV reporter for BBC London
A long time, respected champion of new music, this blood nutted bopper has given many new bands and artist their first taste of radio exposure, with the likes of Suede, Dodgy and Bush all going to bigger and better thing's . I have been very fortunate to meet a lot of my 'heroes' and made friends of a few of them, and I currently boast a Woody Allen DVD collection second to none.
