ABOUT

I have been playing music from a very tender age and started off with the trumpet. I then realised at the age of 14 it wasn't cool to carry a trumpet, so I picked up the guitar. In hindsight, not the best choice... Moving on I continued to play guitar in a variety of bands generally of the metal/rock variety until I got to college and broadened my horizons musically.

I have recently graduated from univesity studying Popular Music & Record Production.

I play the electric and acoustic guitar to a reasonably high standard, and spend a lot of time making electronic/indie music.

I can also play the keys (tentatively) and recently started playing the mandolin.

I'm looking to meet anyone who likes to write there own music, no matter what the genre. I particularly love mashing genres together and blurring the lines.
