Jay "I've thoroughly enjoyed my years working as a musician and have had the pleasure of working along side some great talents, many of whom have become very good friends. I recently worked out that I've driven aproximately 600,000 km around Europe over the last decade, the things one does driven by the love of music ;) Thanks to all my colleagues and loved ones who've been there along the way. My biggest wish, that the world becomes a friendlier more peaceful place for our children" This year Liverpool celebrates European capital of culture! See you there with our band "Proud Lions"! The home of the Beatles, Frankie goes to Hollywood, the Merseybeats, Atomic Kitten, Sugarbabes, Elvis Costello, Flock of Seaguls, the Searchers. My family! And many more!
