ABOUT
I played bass in a London band Goldskool between 2023 and 2025. Before that, I formed a group and played lead guitar with my workmates, with a focus on covering some rock and indie pieces.
In my youth I used to play the guitar and scream to the mic in a noise/post-rock band For Her Pleasure. I then lost interest in playing only to pick it up again after the best part of two decades. I’ve been playing my favourite tunes regularly for the last five-six years or so, purchasing a few nice instruments along the way.

Influences
Mainly indy stuff - my “formation” years coincided with grunge, noise and post-rock. The 90-ties is really my thing, I really like Radiohead, REM, Beirut, PJ Harvey, Jeff Buckley, Sigur Ros, Morcheeba, Soundgarden, Sonic Youth and Red Hot Chili Peppers. And I’m wondering if anyone ever releases anything nearly as solid as The Jesus Lizard’s “Head” record.
