I am a 30 year old folk / rock / prog musican based in Manchester. I love writing and recording music (as well as playing the odd local open mic night).
I usually write chords sequences and lyrics, and then collaborate with group of great friends and impressive musicians to flesh out my music.
Mr Carbohydrate is one of the missed guitar greats of my generation, he plays a few memorable guitar solos.
DJ Flywheel adds his sharp ears and modern slant to music production, most notably synths. The acid test of any tune is the final playing to this musical quality control.
Chris Dumigan has long been my musical mentor. He is a fountain of ideas, often makes arrangement suggestions, writes keyboard solos and sings backing harmonies. He is also the key member of a band I'm in: Acoustic Moods.
The most important collaborator is
Dan Coghill. A talented Bass (he is the Acoustic Moods bassist) and French Horn player, his classical training and all round musicianship underpin almost every track. I could not create this album without Dan.
The track list for my album is as follows:
1. But I Really Want To
2. Lost Again
3. Who We Are
4. Did I Mean Nothing To You
5. The Heart of the Andes
6. I Don't Know Why You Went Away
7. What I Mean To Say
8. The Curse of...
9. The Watcher
10. A Love Never To Be
11. Another Victim of a Broken Heart
12. All I Can Remember
