ABOUT

I've a large range, have ran songwriting workshops have a natural and studied ear for harmony and am very comfortable arranging accompanyin vocals. Although this message may imply the opposite I'm as humble as the honey bee (with an output just as sweet!) and have extensive experience of living with big groups of creatives with all the ups downs and ups again which that can entail. I am painfully aware of how difficult some vocalists can be. Personally I am more of a listener than a incessent warbler (again the online evidence is against this but life's full of contradictionsno?,) I'll never sing over a solo (unless it's mine!) and am a devotee of Zen band management with a view to the perfect band politic (Basically I don't offend easily and won't cry over spilt milk[tho nick ma beer n I'll demonstrate my flying fist of funky mo fo].

Finally I'm living in West London at the moment for a month then I'm gonna move to be close to whoever I need to be close to to make this work.

As mentioned I've got a little management experience and so got pwith regards to findin gigs, promo, myspace, websites ideally everybody will share the load n after we've compiled 15- 20 songs we'll find a monkey manager to do the monkey work .Anyway yada yada yada all the best,


One Love and Keep on keepin that funk alive my base slappin brother
