About Me

it all began with a beat up old guitar, a blues harp, a pocketful of dreams, smalltown indifference, and the will for pastures new! THEN! THE BIG BAD WORLD! like minded people, gigs in america(1975 , 2000 2001) gigs all over europe the british isles( SUCH A GREAT EXPLOSION IN MY LIFE!)In the year 2000 a promoter called ian luck thought up an idea about celebrating 175 years railway history in the north east of england, i.e. George stephenson and the stockton to darlington railway( the 1st one in the world apparently)the brainchild of this was to become a cd called 'A FULL HEAD OF STEAM'. every song , a song about trains, the cd featured artists such as lindisfarne, vin garbutt,jez lowe, martin stephenson ( formerly the daintess) and myself performing my own song "trains breathing fire" this album was deleted( i think some years ago) but there is still a website with all the details online.Then a few years ago i signed a deal with 'spook records' a scottish indie label, i released my 1st album with 'spook' 2 years ago "the passionate pilgrim" available on itunes, amazon, and napster, among others.
