ABOUT

Hi there. I live in Torbay and I enjoy playing most genres of music. I have many years of experience playing live in many types of venues. I also dabble in writing (lyrics more than anything else).

I have also been writing and recording demos with another two musicians in Totnes which I've thoroughly enjoyed. I am looking to set up another project bandwise playing covers of Nik Kershaw, Squeeze, Jamie Cullen etc plus some original stuff that I've worked on over the past 40 years this is something that I have wanted to do for a long time.

I have enlisted a keyboard player but would love to hear from any vocalists, bassists and lead guitarists who would be interested.
