ABOUT
I have many years of experience as a headliner. For over five years I was the front man for a blues band, we wrote, recorded and produced albums, from which we toured and played at many festivals, I’ve played at all the most respected locations in London like Blues Kitchen, Jazz cafe, Spice of life and many more, from which I am most proud we recorded a song from the album "Just Enough for the Real World (JEFTRW), which helped raise money and awareness for human trafficking which for the Helen Bamber Foundation, which had a mention on GMTV. After the band split I moved to Brazil, in Rio is where I gained most of my experience as a soloist, playing piano and on vocals. I appeared in many hotels, bars and restaurants playing all the popular hits from all the styles of music from Blues to Jazz to Rock to Funk to Motown to Soul to R&B and Pop. I have a huge repertoire and it is more than likely if a client shouts out a song, I will know it, from old music too new, as I follow the music fashions, and follow all the latest artists. I have a band in Brazil and play at many big festival events our name is "Cipo Soul", playing manly covers and a few of our own. I know every chord and every scale that there is from Ancient Greek to modern music and have exhausted many of the theories and philosophies of music. Through all my studies and experience of the voice, I have access to all areas of the voice, and therefore am able to sing in any key and have over a 5 octave range, and am blessed with a natural stage presence!
