About Me

MyGen Profile Generator I am in two bands at the moment, playing kit drums in a french/breton folk outfit: GREEN ANGELS, and 6&12 string guitars with FORCENRA!, a jiggy,and haunting song based 2/3 piece, of which there are recordings! more to follow. I also 'do sound' for other bands and have a 3k p.a, that i hire with myself......need more time and energy, gotta finish the sunArmy album, just the cover now!!!!! Music is my cure, but also my bane!!! it keeps me. I am a slave to it. Can't get away from it. Why would I want to? What else is there? Well, the words of a Spinal Tap drummer 'as long as theres the sex and the drugs, I could do without the Rock 'n Roll' springs to mind........But thats rubbish, I now can't be bothered about the drugs.. I live in some beautiful woods, in a Gur.. with my Gurlfriend... and a black cat called magnus.. still playing loads, but having a well deserved break from the town.. Also getting on with a soundtrack for the dance company 'Mean Feet'.
