ABOUT

I played with various bands during the Britpop era as lead vocalist/backing vocalist and rhythm guitarist but stopped to start a family in early 2000's. Also played with a covers band for seven years playing classic Britrock through the ages up to seven times a week. Now playing acoustic gigs of original material in the London area and recording an album at a studio near Hampton Court. Looking for like-minded musicians to help build the songs during recording and possible gigs.

Influences

My favourite bands are The Beatles, Stones, Led Zep, Who, Kinks, Small Faces, etc, Radiohead, The Smiths... but my current sound is more in the late 60's-early 70's folk-rock genre and am very inspired by the songs of Nick Drake but also the West Coast sounds of Crosby, Stills and Nash, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, etc. I'm looking to add an upright bass, flute, piano, strings and brass to my songs.
