Love this song, maybe the most beautiful melody I've heard. Pleasure to listen to, pleasure to play.

Played on Michael Kelly Telecaster 1957, using Wampler Ego compressor.

Going home (cover of song by Dire Straits)

Maybe I'm not yet battered and old - but I love this song by Mark and it speaks from the heart, be it full of holes, or not.

Heart full of holes (cover of Mark Knopfler's song)

I was initially hesitant to make this public - there's couple off-tune bits and it does not really match my Mark Knopfler style.

However, after this accidentally following other songs in my playlist and listening to it a few times, I have to say - this song ROCKS! And we really nailed it. Vika's lyrics (both the initial rap + the middle Russian part is due to her) and Alex's incredible rap + really felt-through vocals make this a hit that's not only worth to publish, but listen to many times! Oh yeah!

City of stars, ft. Sophie (cover of La la land song)

I can't think of a more beautiful melody - this gem by Mark Knopfler is simply unique. I've played this song so many times, never getting tired of it, always getting the same chills. After seeing Mark perform this at Goodwood Road & Racing SpeedWeek few weeks ago, I had to give it another go - with my Les Paul. 

This is my tribute to Mark - the (not just) local hero. See also the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAjZv86-HEU

Local hero (cover of Mark Knopfler's song, Les Paul version)

"You can take the boy out of Cardiff, but you can never take Cardiff out of the boy"!

I wrote this song back in Dec, with fresh emotions of leaving Cardiff. But half a year later, I wouldn't change a thing. For THIS, ladies and gents, is "How I'll remember Cardiff".

How I'll remember Cardiff

This song is indeed about my daily ride that I had while in Biriwa, Ghana. I was working at the institute of mathematical sciences on the other end of the village. The ride on my bicycle through the hot night amidst frequent power cuts in total darkness were what ultimately prompted me to write this song...

Daily ride

I went for a walk. And wrote a song about it.

It was the prime lockdown time and I took an advice from a friend to go for a walk and just leave my phone at home. The result: getting soaked in a storm, lost in Canada water and walking through the dreaded Rotherhithe tunnel. In other words, the most inspiring walk ever, which was bound to be turned into a song!

Walking on

This is a song about one of my friends, a unique character. Not much more is needed to be said, just listen to the song...

Vices

One of my few purely instrumental tracks. This came together spontaneously one sunny day in Prague, just after coming back from Ghana. I liked it straight away, named it "Summer tune" and played it ever since.

Summer tune

A song made in the tough times of self-isolation. And although tough times, for many, I believe, it has been an opportunity for reflection as to how they would want to change and what kind of world they'd like to see ... when this is done

When this is done

One of my favorite (own) songs to play - the time we came to UK, south Wales was indeed special. It was October, sun shining every day and me asking myself if the "rainy UK" is just a myth. Shortly after writing the lyrics and music, the winter kicked in along with the many storms. But still, nothing can take away those sunny days from my memory - journeys on Arriva Trains Wales to Cardiff or the vibrant rugby days of World cup 2015.

Calling at Newport

A song with roots from Llantwit Major. Here we once saw a bunch of youngsters jumping from the cliffs, some 5-6 meters above the water. An elderly couple was observing them from a bench nearby. It turned out it was grandparents of one of the boys and when we asked "how do they know it's deep enough?" they explained: when the tide is low, you can see the rocky bottom and so you're safe to jump when it's high...

A song that emerged suddenly in my mind one warm evening on a beach in Biriwa, Ghana, in early 2015...

African bird

This song is really about Oslo and some of my experiences there, but also about the time I started to focus on music, guitar and songwriting a bit more seriously than before.

Vienna (cover of Billy Joel's song)

A guitarist, musician, singer, songwriter and a busker, currently based in London, altho originally from Slovakia!

My greatest influences are Mark Knopfler & Dire Straits, John Mayer, Tommy Emmanuel and Pink Floyd.

My style in music is simply to play melodically and with feeling - genres don't matter too much, and so it is generally anything from rock, rock n'roll and pop to country and blues.
