I've been making music since I was 15, my parents exposed me to a lot of music as a kid and my Dad used to sing and play guitar to me so it was kind of inevitable that I would pick it up one day. I played in bands at school and in the 90's I fronted a local rock band for a few years and had a really good time, made a few demos, played a lot of gigs and got a pretty good reputation locally but nothing more than that. Eventually we split citing musical differences (so cliche I know). I'd started doing some solo acoustic gigs along side the band but, musically my tastes were broadening a little, I started getting into Electronica; Bjork, Chicane etc. so I built a little studio where I started messing around with that kind of stuff, I ended up with an album called Broken. I never sent the CD to anyone except friends and family, I've always been terrible at self promotion and there's always the thought that there's a better song around the corner. I began to feel that I was straying too far from the guitar so I reined in a lot of the electronic elements and my writing is now very acoustic oriented again (that last statement may be a lie), I seem to have come full circle and at last hopefully finding a sound that is me.
