About Me

The first 10 years of my life I have always felt were pretty much all about Top Cat, Rentaghost, Arsenal and the occaisional Bagpuss. In the early eighties I found music or at least it found me through the old wireless granpa Frank used to wind up of an evening and we would sit around and be entertained by early Adam and the Ants and Duran Duran. I of course saw myself as a little edgier and thus decorated my walls with Adam and the Ants. A four year stint in boarding school which I am proud to say opened my eyes to some very early sexual experiences with girls!!!! I know fantastic and a love of U2. This is 1984 and trust me they were edgy and i was introducing the school to Boy, War and Under a Blood Red Sky. After dropping out of school I began to pursue my love for music and started working for EMI, doing a week recording 24 unsigned bands from there I moved over to Sarm West where I made tea for Anita Dobson and Briam May!!!!urrghhhh the indignation of it. I spent the next few years wondering what t was all about had May desroyed my musical ambitions? The answer is no in 1992, whilst drunk and probably stoned I was asked to talk shite into a tape recorder, from those grainy recorings came Kicks Like A Mules hit the Bouncer, eventually charting at no.6 in the UK top 40. After that I spent more years in the creative wilderness whilst marriage and children entered my life, giving me a different focus. Now it is 2007, I have my own company selling contemporary furniture into hotels,bars, restaurants etc Furniture Fusion check us out and I will embark on bringing my music to the masses! Watch this space its about to get noisy.
