From an early start playing cornet in both Dinnington and Thurcroft brass bands, I switched to the guitar when I was 16, started singing when I was 19, and that's been it ever since.

I have played in two local bands (The Eternal and Numb) who were regarded quite highly. For the last few years I played solo or as a duo with friends.

I can usually be found in the Saturday night session in Fagan's. This lets me play with some great musicians in an informal setting, playing along with songs or tunes.
