I am a musician from Liverpool. I am guitarist with the band Mudcat Landing (@mudcat-landing) and a Mudcat Brother. I am currently promoter at Heaven's Gate (81 Renshaw) live, original Americana/Country/Roots (Bennett Wilson Poole; Goat Roper Rodeo Band; Luke Tuchscherer; Amelia White; Hannah Rose Platt; Ags Connolly; Caroline Spence; Robert Vincent; Pat Reedy; Case Hardin; Songdog; Don Gallardo and many more).
 I have played in several bands through the years, The DaVincis, Cicada Falls, Mugstar and Rattlebus, usually playing bass. A couple of years ago I started writing my own songs, recording them, warts and all, at home, posting them up here and edging toward performing them live.  I joined Mudcat Landing in January 2013, playing guitar. Along with Tim Glover (singer, guitarist and songwriter with Mudcat Landing) we perform my own songs as The Mudcat Brothers.
Together with Barry Jones (@southbound-attic-band) and Mark Whitfield (www.americana-uk.com) I helped run Liverpool's Acoustic Dustbowl evenings (http://acousticdustbowl.americana-uk.com/ or www.facebook.com/acousticdustbowl) for 3 years at The View Two Gallery (http://www.viewtwogallery.co.uk/). In a relatively short time we presented some great artists including @the-burning-hell, @otisgibbs, @eef-barzelay-clem-snide, @stephensimmons, Eric Brace & Peter Cooper (www.reverbnation.com/ericbraceandpetercooper), Rick Shea (@sheastunes), @thelostbrothers, @thegoatroperrodeoband, @hannahroseplatt, @drewholcomb, @christacouture, @quietloner, @dennisellsworth and many more.
I previously promoted a live americana/alt-country night in Liverpool, between 2004 and 2006 called Hell's Ditch. Some great nights and great memories - Steve Wynn & The Miracle 3 (www.stevewynn.net), The Deadstring Brothers (www.bloodshotrecords.com/artist/deadstring-brothers), @gina-villalobos, @michael-weston-king, @them-wiyos, @nelsandrews, @chrismillsmusic, @jeffvida, @peter-bruntnell and many more played some blinding sets.
