Ok so im a guitarist, songwriter, lyricist, studio engineer, producer, promoter, drunken viking battle monster, cat lover and occasional honest citizen from the depths of Middlesex (tho i now reside in Hertfordshire just outside of London) I have over 25 yrs of experiance in the music game, been in bands, toured, recorded, released, had break ups, smashed teeth, chewed my fingers to the bone, discovered that the human body is not indestructable (damn you captain scarlett!) and had many good times and some not so good along the way. Nowdays older but still none the wiser i make music, teach music, record music, gig music, host youtube channels and occasionally still smash teeth. I could go on but as your eyes have probably already fallen out of your skull in a desperate bid to commite eyeball suicide ill just shut up!
