A versatile audio specialist, experienced songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, music and sound has always been a part of my life.
From a foundation in Punk and New Wave, I began my pro career as keyboardist for the punk band
The Adicts.
I went on to play keyboards and singing lead/backing vocals for various pro function bands travelling the world, while also writing original material, jammed with
Squeeze one very memorable time, and was a signed artist for a number of years with
Albinus Records.
It's been quite the experience!
I’ve also been working with digital audio data for many years, initially for my own projects, but later, as an in-house studio engineer and then for my own clients as well.
Alongside performing live, I started composing instrumental pieces that led to commissions from
Loop Dance Company and
Crew of Patches Theatre Company, and I later became one of the lead composers on an urban music initiative for
The Arts mean Business - which included recording with
Dominic Miller for a limited edition CD.
More recently I've created works which have attracted the attention of well-known artists such as
Brian May - who even mused about including one of my songs on a planned compilation album of his. Who knows - maybe that will happen yet?!
A graduate of music programmes at
Chichester College,
Hackney Community College and
The Songwriting Academy, I now work regularly with other songwriters and production music composers around the globe. I am also the producer of "
The Wedding Celebrant Show" podcast.
