I started recording early. There's a tape of me playing 'Peggy Sue' aged 3 years old. It's not as smooth as Buddy Holly's version, I had quite a gruff voice for a 3 year old. I kind of bark the words. I studied at Coventry and then at Birmingham. Coventry being the inspiration for the song 'Wainbody Ave' - it was the road that led to the college and it had the freakiest trees all the way up it. The ones that have had the branches cut thick and straight so they look awkward and stunted yet strangely imposing. The ones I've drawn are a bit friendlier looking than the real ones. At Birmingham I played a lot of Gamelan music, which is good for the soul and gentle on a hangover. My debut album 'Escape From The Requiem' is available now.
