ABOUT

Hello - I used to play a lot of music in my 20s, but have gradually being playing less as work and other life commitments predictably take over. Previously played in rock, post-rock, metal, wonky alternative pop bands, writing and performing original material. Looking to bring music-playing back into my life and hoping to find some like-minded people in the local area - I’m ambitious musically, but having fun and creative progression take priority over conquering the music business!
