About Me

After the demise of The Eyes - a superb London based psych. rock group featuring the amazing talents of Tom Phillips, the one-time delights of Pag, and myself. I've turned to solo folktronica for want of anything better to do.
The name Green is a not-so-subtle reference to The Eyes, (I have green eyes). It also infers a great deal of other facets that I believe help to describe me and my music, such as nature and naivety or inexperience. Choose nothing lightly.
In addition to my own musical meanderings, I have engineered, produced and remixed tracks for several other artists, look out for them in my friends list.
