Born in UK and spent most of my adult life in London. In 2000 made the big break and have lived in the Middle East since then. Now based in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
With over 300 songs written, my favourites are recorded in 5 collections:
"One Eye on my Car" 2000
"Facing West At Sunrise" 2002
"The Water" 2005
"Tattoos IV" 2006
"Eve's High Heels" 2008
Most of the songs reflect an introspective and ...it must be said...rather jaded view of life and relationships. I try to avoid cliched lyrics, predictable melody and obvious song structure.
I often play guitar with a hybrid "pick and slap" style, influenced by several great players including Dick Gaughan, Martin Simpson and Joni Mitchell. Quite happy to have a good old strum too, though!
