ABOUT

I'm a seasoned musician and aspiring song writer. I've been playing guitar and bass for a long time, since i was 9 or 10 and picked up a few other instruments along the way. I've always found i work better bouncing ideas off other musicians in a band. I haven’t played live in years, but recently I’ve been working on an EP/Album of my own songs. It would be true to say I’m struggling a bit with imposter syndrome, my arrangement decisions often fall flat and my singing voice is temperamental. So I think a collaboration might be on the cards. So hit me up if you want to explore some collaboration opportunities, especially around song writing, recording, accompaniment or just advise. I know what’s good and would be a better producer of others music than my own. See video for an idea of what i'm trying to do.
