  • Bio

    Born in 1977, I began writing poetry and song lyrics at the age of 14 (in 1991), working with musicians known to me for a few years before finally taking up the guitar in 1998. Since then I have also learnt bass guitar, mandolin, banjo, mandola, ukelele, harmonica and drums, all to varying degrees. In 2001 I formed a band - "Elengenesse" - but we only recorded 1 song together before splittling up. I then decided to record solo, having already written hundreds of songs. I self funded and recorded my first album, "Married To The Music" in 2001 at a local studio (Beliefspace) and used the same studio to record "This Is Life" in 2002, "Joseph's Bones: A Soundtrack Of Renewed Hope" in 2003 and "Twisted" in 2006. My new album, "Where We Live" was recorded at April Media Studios. "Where We Live" contains songs about life, love, landmarks and owning a dog! Throughout the last 9 or so years I have played acoustic guitar, bass guitar and electric guitar in 4 different church bands, in 3 different churches. From 2009 to early 2011 I was the bass player in the local T-Rex tribute band, Revolution (now defunct)....... ...... .... .... .. ....

    Brickbat has been played on the It's A Frog's Life Acoustic Podcast Show 50 - Return to Show 15.
    This show contains a new track from (almost) all of the artists on the first MySpace Special back in February 2007. There's a bit of 80s nostalgia, and the start of a new Then and Now feature to replace MySpace Corner.
    ..

    Here's to the next fifty shows!



    To listen to the show follow the link above to this specific show or the link below to the general shownotes page.


    I hope you enjoy it, and thanks for listening.
