When I was twelve I was looking for a way to get women to notice me (heightwise I was just below the sightlines of the average woman). With the most clandestine of intentions I started to play the guitar. Secretly of course I hoped that this would gain me the attentions of womankind. A woeful thirteen years later, a woman asked me out on a date after seeing one of my gigs. How cool is that?
Not really very cool.
But it's better than a kick in the bollocks.
Some might say I am doing myself a disservice by describing my music as "better than a kick in the bollocks" but I'm just being discreet. It's a matter of opinion as to what is good and what is not, but I think I can quite accurately say that an evening spent listening to some of my songs is better than an evening spent having your balls kicked.

Good to hear from you, if you click back to my myspace and check out top friends - contact Sirius, Bournemouth Folk Club, and Solid Air tell them I recommended you, we would love to have you come down to our neck of the woods.
Hope this finds you safe, well and happy.
Thank you for your lovely comments -please let me know when a CD is out and if you can recommend some London venues that would be cool.
Would just like to say I very much enjoyed your set on Tuesday. You made my guitar sound much nicer than I ever manage which I'm sure it appreciated too.
