I was born in 1981 in Wolverhampton, which is in the UK, part of the infamous 'Black Country'.
I picked up on music when I was about 7 years old and learnt the flute, from this I progressed to saxophone, and then became pretty enamoured by the guitar. After playing in bands for a couple of years, i decided it was time i wrote some solo music, and began recording my own tracks on a 4-track Tascam desk, using a crappy casio keyboard, guitar and eventually a 606. With a bit of time and a lot of effort I managed to develop the sound to encompass synths and electronic percussion, and eventually I bought some more gear.
I sent a couple of demos off to labels I was enjoying at the time, and luckily I had a reply from Lee Metamatics. He asked me for a track for the CI2 comp, and maybe an ep. I began to compile tracks I had been writing, and made a few more. A couple of years later and 'Frosty Mornings And Summer Nights' was released.
While I was waiting for the release of that album, I met Gabriel Morley, the stranded Los Angeles stoner. Here was a man with a taste for expensive food and glitchy beats. Together we forged an album 'Where We're From, The Birds Sing A Pretty Song' influenced by our love for filmmaker David Lynch, and his twisted visions.
I got some money from all this and bought a Microphone, which allowed me to bring my lovely guitar back into the mix. Thanks to this, and thanks to meeting my lovely Monika, I wrote a selection of love songs on accoustic guitar. After some careful production and packaging, they were released as 'Tangled Wool'.

More to come!
