Guitarist, musician, composer and collector of small rubber animals. Played on lots of records, TV documentaries, a few films and toured the world. If you have any questions or want to talk about a session/project or writing, then please get in touch by email below. I will do my very best to get back to you ASAP.

ABOUT

I’m a UK based guitar player and over the years I have recorded/played in a wide range of styles from Pop/Funk/Jazz to Prog Rock/Dance/Folk. People I’ve worked with on gigs/TV/writing and recordings include: Howard Jones, Fish, Ute Lemper, The Freemasons, Phats and Small, Derek B, The Lighthouse Family, Gota Yashiki, Eric Stewart, Peter Collins, Dave Stewart, Lifesigns, Nena, Tracey Ullman, Julie Zenatti, Pilot, The Young Ones (BBC), Chris Kimsey, John Otway, Sugababes, David McAlmont/Guy Davies (Fingersnap), Pam Sheyne, Calum Malcolm, Roger Daltrey, Nigel Pegrum, Steve Forward, Dawn French (Ch4) and many more as well as library music albums. TV documentaries include BBC ‘Wildlife on One’ episodes with composer Stephen Faux, Discovery Channel and I’ve worked on several film scores with DJs Andy Hunter/Robbie Bronnimann. In between sessions/albums, there’s been countless gigs/festivals/tours around the world mainly with Fish and Howard Jones. I’ve got to play some amazing venues, worked with great artists/musicians/bands, met some wonderful people and made many friends along the way. Occasionally I record under the name ‘the itch’.

I mainly use Logic and Ableton for writing and recording combined with a mixture of analogue and software amps/pedals/keyboard’s/etc. I’m always up for a project or session so get in touch.

When not working as a musician, you will often find me wandering around with a Fuji camera taking street pics.

Day 6 NY

After all these years of coming to New York this skyline never ceases to amaze me. It’s a constant and evolving thing. This is taken looking across the Hudson on the Jersey side from the Sheraton in Weehawken.

Day 5 Boston City Winery

Day 4 was off…

Brave valentines audience on such a cold Monday last night who seemed to really enjoy the gig. Boston City Winery with the Howard Jones acoustic trio. Joe Bull pic.

Day 2 Hangar Theatre Ithaca, NY

Shoeshine the theatre hound seemed to enjoy the soundcheck in the afternoon. Pic sent by the excellent Jeremy Morrison. Thought the gig went really well.. great banter from Howard.

1st day back for the gallery. Precautions have been put in place…

1st day back for the gallery. Precautions have been put in place for everybody’s protection & Mel has done a great job changing it around. It’s different of course but still looks amazing inside the shop. Good luck to all the retailers up & down the country… it’s not going to be easy for many, but fingers crossed, it’s a step in the right direction. #shoplocal
