Mad on music since I was a boy but only bought my first guitar at nineteen.Now a one man band producing home recordings since 2008, played on mainly acoustic instruments. Influences are mainly 70's children's TV music and 80's indie with a bit o' folk thrown in for good measure. I record original material by taking a riff or theme for a stroll; it can take us to some surprising places.

Currently writing songs and gigging in Cheshire/N.Wales and got a play on Tom Robinson's Mixtape on BBC6Music as well as a support slot for Mark Radcliffe's Galleon Blast.
