Influences

Biggest influence are early level 42,particularly the jazz/funk fusion style.Other big influences are Ultravox for their blend of guitar,piano & electronics.
Of the more contemporary artists,keane are pretty much top of the list followed by probably Bens brother,that kind of thing,Amy Mcdonald is also a talent i feel.
