I've worked with loads of great people over the years but at the moment the main guys on my new Album are John Mc Cullough - Keys, Conor McKraner - Bass and Paul 'Hammy' Hamilton - drums!!
Influences
Tom Waits, Joni Mitchell, Elvis Costello, Randy Newman, Ella Fitzgerald, Eva Cassidy, John Martin......
I've just finished recording my second album which is due out in early summer. I took a break from music last year and have spent the last 6 months travelling Australia and seeing some of the world! I've got 2 months left in Oz then i look forward to getting back and releasing my new album. I've had a chance to work with some amazing musicians and people over the years and my new album is one i'm extremely proud of as it hopefully shows my progression since i released my first album.
Since playing music professionally i've toured with artists such as Al Green, Doctor John, Paolo Nutini, Brian Kenndy as well as my own tours!
Thats basically me to date, so keep an ear and eye out for the new album, i'll be putting some new tracks up from it soon.
