ABOUT

new update for 2023 a side project /recording band . looking for unique percussionist, a funky bassist and anything quirky /unique... bagpipes anyone?

New Update! for 2022
All my focus is now on our event in Milestones museum Basingstoke called CobblesandCogs.com as part of this we have 'Busk stops' for local musicians wanting to step from open mics into event performances we can offer food, a contribution towards expenses and experience also if you have any CD's etc, you can sell them through our merch stall and of course entrance to the weekend event is included.

Don't be thrown by the steampunk element, its all about creativity.
I continue to be the lead singer and front man, rhythm guitar and arranger in a steampunk cover band called 'the Wandering Wurlitzer' We continue to look for extra players for that, right now we are playing for fun at open mics in Kingston, as a jam band its about who is available and when, this is really to be viewed as a fun / side project playing for extra performance time and experience. We are all based around the Kingston upon Thames live mic scene so if you are in that area it would help with availability.
