hello

About Me

Greetings friends and comrades...

typical Scorpio. Lover of cats. And tea.

Music journalist writer person, DJ, former model and actor, street theatre silent movie explorer ... amongst other things ...

I'm also writing a celebration of the Slits.

I'll be posting up various bits of music journalism for you to peruse, should you care to, also the deets of my radio show PARANOIMIA, which I would love you to listen to - it's an alternative mish mash of dub reggae, punk, 30s tango, blues, rockabilly and everything in between. Enjoyez vous!
