about

"I have determination withing me to
attaining my niche in the music
industry.
My life completely revolves around
music and my name may never be
seen in lights but that is of no
matter because i will work with what i
love and to this end i will succeed''.

SOUND ENGINEER

I have been involved in four recording
studio's two of which i own or have a
share of one of which is in the UK
and the other the US.
I have worked with various artist's
from different genre's of music
including rap, rock, metal, acoustic,
and gospel.
I have also worked in talk over
sessions and theatre narration
recording, also have had to add music
to client's lyrics, and create tracks
for small films and documentaries
one being a fashion shoot that was
being used around Europe.
Live sound has been one of my main
incomes for the last 3 years mainly
for underground bands and
promotion companies.

TEACHER

I started teaching at the arts
collective at Madcap Wolverton about
three years ago.
It started as a bit of a fluke when i
discovered i was able to connect with
the less confident and was able to get
them to try things in music they
would never of dreamt of doing.
I was encouraged by the musician in
residence there Steve McDaniel (
Founder of KIK MUSIC) to carry on
as i had not realised at the time i was
the person training them on the
usage of the studio with guidance
also from Gawaine when he could be
there, another engineer.
It culminated in the interest of the
Open University on how our teaching
methods were producing results and
they went on to produce a video of us
for training purposes, Also i give
private tuition on acoustic and
electric guitar.
The arts collective sadly came to an
end and at present i am a tutor for
Milton Keynes College working in
one of her Majesty's H.M.P
establishments, This entails classes
or one to one tuition of inmates in
the Education Centre interested in
practical and music technology.

COMMUNITY PROJECTS

Were run in the main for the under
nineteen's who came from
disadvantaged backgrounds,
( YOUNG PEOPLE FROM ALL
WALKS OF LIFE).
The idea was to give them some basic
training before encouraging them to
go on to produce there own music
either by instrument or technology,
Composing the material and then to
record the tracks.
Each course ended with a performance
at various venues. They had achieved
their set goal and some of the more
determined went on to various bands
or college courses.

MUSICIAN

I have played with many bands and
also done plenty of session work.
I was also in a function band that
done quite well performing at various
venues.
This actually helped pay my way
through college, But after a while i
had come to a wall with my music
and something had to give so i left so
i could concentrate more on my own
music.
After getting a few songs composed i
started a duo with one of my tutors
which proved to be very popular
playing a mixture of original and
cover songs culminating in us being
the support group to one of my
favourite groups Dan Saul. But
because of conflicting work schedules
we had to bring it to an end.
Through Myspace i am able to have
two of my songs released on an
American Compilation album and
have had some of my music
showcased on international pod casts
and radio. Currently i am working
with various musicians/ session
players on my own compositions
working in my studio.
I have also just finished my tour in
America and now am back home
working on the release of a track for
great Ormond street children's
hospital called Christmas day.
