My Music
Receiving an acoustic guitar as a gift many years ago nudged open a door into a whole new world of exploration, interpretation and expression.
For over ten years now I've been writing, arranging and composing my own songs, a process that has involved continuous experimenting and learning, all the time striving to improve and develop the craft.
The sounds that emerge are most definitely founded on and influenced by the music I have been exposed to and enjoy. My taste is eclectic and spread across a broad spectrum, ranging from folk on through pop and dance, to indie, rock and some metal.
Each song comes from its own somewhere. Occasionally a snapshot of a particular time and place, other times a slideshow compiled over a longer period.
In the recording studio the production on each song to date has been built mainly upon a platform of drum, bass and guitar, woven in such a way as to allow breathing space for some interesting intricacies that add that something extra. It has been a joy watching each one come to life and grow into the entities it feels they were intent on becoming.
Releasing some of my music over the course of the last twelve months, and the support and encouragement that has garnered, has lead to a greater belief in what I’m quickly appreciating is a true passion. This new confidence has lead to the sharing of some home recordings and some insights into where it all comes from.
The process really feels two-way now. In order to show my true appreciation to those who take the time to listen I feel an obligation to work hard to shape each song to its best form. This is a responsibility that excites me and inspires me to continue to explore further.
I hope that you will enjoy the results and join me on the journey.
