Started performing in jazz bands at the age of sixteen which culminated in a gig at Glastonbury Festival on the main stage. Moved to Brighton in 1990 playing in various venues & lots of function work. Formed a improv band called Vogue Gyrator that lasted ten years. Completed the Creative Producer course @ ATM winning Student Of The Year 2009 and the ATM Brighton CTTLS Music Educator course in 2013. For the last four years I’ve played in a ten to eight piece funk band and thats now ended so looking to start new projects or join an existing band.
