About Me

MySpace Menu

MySpace Layouts MySpace Editor Icons Collage MySpace Backgrounds MySpace Codes Basically I love to have a good time. I'm a musician, playing Jazz/Funk sax mostly but I'm starting to make some dance hits on my laptop so look out. I'm big on recycling and probably worry too much about the future of the planet. But somebody has to.Spent 5 wicked years in the US studying Jazz Performance at Berklee College of Music in Boston. I learned from/met some amazing musicians and I just moved to London to do more of the same........but I really miss The States and want to live in NYC/LA someday. In the meantime I'll keep traveling the world in search of that killa hook!

My Interests

LISTENING TO, WRITING AND PERFORMING MUSIC. Love most of it, mainly Funk, Jazz, Soul, Dance (House) and Hip-Hop. Travel - I've lived in France, Spain and America and have been fortunate enough to travel to loads of interesting places. Try to keep fit - football (soccer to you Yanks - the one where you actually use your feet) snowboarding, and the gym. Drunken paper rounds in California at 6am with very sexy local girls (that's a new one) I also REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY love Cadbury Creme Eggs.

I'd like to meet:

Stevie, Quincy Jones, Bird, Trane,(obviously not for a while) George W Bush (just to smack him in the face), Sandra Bullock, the genius that invented Cadbury's Creme Eggs and the bastard that stole my minidisc!

Music:

Groove Armada, Cannonball Adderley, Chaka Khan, Chemical Bros, Malente, Gnarls Barkley, Zapp, Masters At Work, Jamiroquai, Kenny Garrett, Daft Punk, Fatboy Slim, Pharell, J Dilla, Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, The Roots, Snoop, Quincy Jones, Dre, BT, Ben Harper, The Streets, Tye Tribbett and GA to name but a few.....

Movies:

The Big Blue, Super Troopers, Office Space, Crash, Spinal Tap, Life of Brian, The Usual Suspects and Shawshank.

Television:

Don't really watch TV much anymore, except for footy. Actually that's not strictly true - I am addicted to Lost and Prison Break. I piss my pants at King of The Hill, Family Guy, and especially Curb Your Enthusiasm but The A Team still reigns supreme...

Books:

Don't read much either (I'm working on that!) but I loved Life of Pi, The Celestine Prophecies and The Alchemist.

Heroes:

Mum and Dad, Beckham, Jay Kay, Kenny Garrett, Cannonball Adderley, David Sanborn, John Lennon and most of my close friends.
