About me:

I have been a professional musician for several years. My main instruments are Guitar and Piano, I also play bass, drums and sing backing vocals. I have significant touring experience which has taken me all over the world including places as diverse as Moscow, Singapore and Thailand playing to crowds that have varied anywhere between 500- 70,000 people. During this time I have also made TV appearances on Channel 4, E4, ITV2, Channel M and various European and international music channels. I have extensive studio experience and I am used to having to work under pressure to finish a session on time and to realize a producers/artists ideas quickly. Recently I have been working with The Rakes and co-written their latest LP "Klang" with them. This was recorded in Berlin with Producer "Chris Zane" which has received excellent industry wide reviews and has lead on to continual touring since the release. I have been given artist endorsements with Hofner Guitars, Laney Amplifiers and Roland Keyboards which I currently use along side other equipment in my live set up, depending on what is required at the time. In addition to playing for The Rakes I am currently working on my own projects, one of which is "The Moons" fronted by Andy Crofts who plays keyboards in Paul Weller's band. I am always Keen to know about new projects, new directions and creative people to work with and I aim to establish myself with a reputation as a great musician.

    You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you'll discover will be wonderful. What you'll discover is yourself....
    Photobucket
    Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is,
    to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will find them gradually, without noticing it, and live along some distant day into the answer...

    It is only when we silent the blaring sounds of our daily existence that we can finally hear the whispers of truth that life reveals to us, as it stands knocking on the doorsteps of our hearts...

    It's a great thing when you realize you still have the ability to surprise
    yourself. Makes you wonder what else you can do that you've forgotten about for you will never come up against a greater adversary than your own potential..

    That's a shame Chris - I'm always complaining about gig clashes but must be a nightmare when you're a musician with your thumbs in so many pies. I hope you have a good one anyway and hope you can make it after.

    I tried putting this on The Moons site but it deactivates links - so I sent to to Andy - you might recognise some of the people (haha)



    That's on my second youtube page I started so I can put up tracks of my myspace topfriends and my first is here which I use for live gigs and going to try to get some Moons vids

    You can re-live the gigs over and over with a personal vid :)
