SEEKING

ABOUT

I'm a songwriter/performer and have just graduated from Leeds College of Music. I’m looking to form a band this summer, North London 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, and I have new tracks which are edgier and more unique in the works. But mostly I wish to collaborate with other artists and/or to write new material together.

Influences

My own tastes are eclectic, ranging from Classic Rock (Led Zep, The Who, Bowie Queen), to Alternative (Radiohead, Bjork) to Funk/Soul/Hip Hop (James Brown, Funkadelic, Otis Redding, Chic, OutKast) to Jazz/Swing (Great American Songbook), to 'World' (Flamenco, Latin American) and Classical (Beethoven, Rachmaninov). 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...
