i have always played music. My first band was a band called Blakhawx and we rocked in a kind of spandex meets Slayer type way. After that i was in a band called swampshack, my first 3 piece, we released a few records called " the screamer ep" and another called "damage" these were very fine recordings and you should check them out if ya can (maybe i will do a swampshack my space)
Next was the best and the worst of times. I played in a band called "turn" for about 7 years. We went through hell but made some great recordings. i loved this band and believed in it with my whole heart but it didn't work out. Still i learned a lot about people and music and had some really great times and met some great people.
I don't regret anything as it was everything that brought me to where i am now. I am now ready to make my first record on my own.
i expect i will have it made soon. It is the record i have always dreamed of making and it will be the most honest and real thing i have ever done, and the scariest too but as my barman in kells told me once "if you risk nothing you risk everything"

Ultimate ass kisser that i am i must say that your music is an inspiration. There are some Irish artists that should be held in the highest regard and you are one of them. Wide Open is my favourite new one....
