Biography

Vocalist, Musician, Producer, Audio Engineer, Home Studio, Pro Studio, Songwriter, Composer, Lyricist

I started off playing drums in local bands for over 7 years in the 90's, before moving onto songwriting and playing acoustic guitar. I've fronted several bands and played acoustic covers and originals professionally all over the UK for over 10 years.

Through time I developed some piano skills and moved into audio recording and production, firstly to record myself, then gradually working with local artists, and helping mentor up and coming acts, writing and producing with acts such as SILVI, Fraser McLean and Ashhy. The latest track by SILVI - That's Not Love, was aired on BBC National Radio in Scotland in Nov 2020.

In 2019 I was commissioned by Scottish director Maz Edmond of Angelface Productions to provide an original song for her feature film Connect. The song 'You I Live For' is performed by lead actor Kevin Guthrie, who's previous roles include fils such as Sunshine on Leith, Sunset Song, and more recently, Mr Abernathy in JK Rowlings Fantastic Beasts. Connect premiered at Glasgow Film Festival on 23rd February 2019 and is now available to watch on most online platforms.
