About Me

Bit of a one man band, plays keyboard (badly), electric bass, guitar, lead, as well as a lot of acoustic. Have done quite a lot of gigs in Leicester Square area, eg Henrys, Long Island and surbaban pubs as well. Used to play every Saturday and Sunday at the above bars but hey, meant my weekends were gone and after summer gave it a rest.Enjoy recording music at home, playing all the musical parts, using drum machines. Most recordings are covers, though do have a few own compositions which are so so, I don't seem to take so much care over them as when recording covers.OzT no4 ( chilled ) was released last year by my own home computer based label..... oi you fellas, STOP LAUGHING BACK THERE!!!, in great demands by my mates as a fun and curiousity piece at the end of the night!!Thinking I may start work on OzT no5 soon as.... to the horror of my mates :) OzT ..5 will be a lot more dance tracks, heapsa drums and base and riffs, like Hoxtons etc, that should be fun!!Influnences are mainly Anzac music from home, Chisel, Crawl, Kelly, Crowded House, Inxs, Dragon, Hunters etc but really enjoy all type of music. Expanding my base music knowledge all the time.So the music you can hear here is really just some own compositions, on electrics and acoustic, I play all the instruments on them, cept for drums which is a drum machine. I actually usually play just accoustics and sing, which I have been told is quite different from these recordings!!! Anyway, hope you enjoy it!!!Looking to meet other musians, to play and see what happens. Am fairly versitile, with quite a few different musical styles, though I know the music here probably don't reflect that cause as I said, I am not orignal!!! Have fun all and keep on rocking!! I can be contacted on [email protected] or give me a call on 07802 432 929. Cheers!
