About me: I live in Sheffield.
I Drum for Jody Wildgoose, Steve Edwards, The Lovers, and Black Cat White Cat.
I play Keyboards and tambourine with Jarvis Cocker. Used to play with Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros, Bass, guitar and trombone.
Also played bongoes with Richard Hawley.
I was in the Longpigs from the beginning to the end.
In 2007 I got a degree in Pop, now I lecture it at Huddersfield University. I have brown hair, and a slight limp.
This Saturday, we, The Hours kick-off our UK tour, right up there in Sheffield, at the Leadmill. We want the tour to start with a bang, so it would be good to see you all there!

I've been playing a midi drum kit lately and getting really into it. One of my enduring memories of you is of the smile you used to have on your face when you played the drums. I often think about it when I'm playing. Why did you give that up anyway? (Playing the drums - I know why you gave up smiling) Was it giving your back gip?
