2016 marks 25 years since I started working in the music industry (I started at a young age playing 50's & 60's Rock'n Roll!!).  In that time I have been lucky enough to have toured the world. I've performed in Japan, across Europe and all the way around all 50 states of America.  On Sept 6th 2013 I released my debut album, Do Nutty.

 

My playing style encompasses everything from the more traditional genres of rock ‘n Roll, Jazz, Funk, Blues and Country through to EDM, Indie and Hip Hop.

 

For the past few years I have been a regular performer and collaborator on a session basis for Malachai (Domino Records), Beth Gibbons (Portishead), Gavin Thorpe (Blue Monkey Recordings), Emmy nominated Composer Sarah Class and Nashville Singer/Songwriter Kevin Montgomery.  I am the only Englishman to have toured the U.S.A playing 50 states in 50 days.

I am lucky enough to have recorded and performed alongside some world class musicians and producers including those from seminal Bristol acts Massive Attack & Portishead, as well as players from Robert Plant's Sensational Space Shifters, Wilco, Squeeze, Phantom Limb, Tim McGraw, Seal and Siouxsie Sioux.

 

As well as playing numerous one night stands with acts all over the country I also promote my own material both with a full band and doing solo acoustic gigs.
