Bio

I don’t consciously stick to any particular style when I write songs although they invariably end up sounding like a mixture of the artists I’m influenced by. I’m always listening for something that moves me and makes me feel something. I then try to develop the song by incorporating as many unique and original ideas as I can. Because of this, I have great difficulty when trying to put my music into categories; is it pop rock, rock, alternative, progressive,…. If you have any suggestions for appropriate genres, I would appreciate your help. A little information about me. I started out playing guitar in various bands about 20 years ago. A number of those years were spent continuously gigging and unsuccessfully trying to attract the attention of some record companies. After a break from music, in which I got a proper job, got married and had children, I bought myself a PC and some recording equipment. I immediately found a passion for writing and recording songs and you can listen to the results on here.

Influences

Crowded House, Marillion, Chic, The Verve, U2, Doves, The Police, Simple Minds, Lloyd Cole and the Commotions, Air, Pink Floyd, Love and Money, Keane, Tears for fears
