SEEKING
Vocalist.ABOUT
I'm a songwriter and keyboard player. My main interest is writing songs and require people to help these songs develop into fuller sounds. I hope to form a writing and recording collaboration that creates songs suitable for licensing but, if all goes well,, get gigs and release songs as a band. At the end of 2019, and the throughout 2020, I released many of my songs on 8 albums.

Influences
Red Hot Chili Peppers, Kula Shaker, Blondie, Blur, Deep Purple, Queen, ABBA, Scorpions, Van Der Graaf Generator,
I have been compared to Talking Heads, Ian Dury, Edwyn Collins, and Boomtown Rats, although in a one man band low budget fashion.
I write ballads and funkier kinds of tunes and like featuring brass and string accompaniments quite often.
Life and what occurs in life is what influences me.
