ABOUT

I'm a songwriter/performer and have just graduated from Leeds College of Music. I’m looking to form a band this summer, Liverpool based.

I've been playing guitar for almost 15 years, writing songs for 5 and singing for 3. My last band WireBird performed for 2 years and before uni I was in another serious band for two years also, The Razz, gaining substantial gigging experience from touring with The View, recording with The Enemy and playing across credential venues such as The Barrowlands, Koko and Liverpool O2 Academy.

I have a lot of songs recorded which showcase my writing style so far, but mostly I wish to collaborate with other artists and/or to write new material together.

Influences

My own tastes range, from the classic rock artists (Beatles, Rolling Stones, Led Zep, The Who, T.Rex, Free, Hendrix, Dylan), to Jazz/Swing (The Great American song book), to soul/funk/disco (James Brown, Otis Redding, Chic etc) to folk (Nick Drake, The Staves) to some alternate (Radiohead, Bjork) and to 'World' (Flamenco, Latin American). Despite my tastes, I don't want to turn away any fans of genres I haven't mentioned, because who knows, we could make great music together anyway...
