I was introduced to Soundcloud by Wes Martin (Ukuleleboy) after seeing his songs on Twitter.  Since then I have found a plethora of wonderful music and musicians sharing their musical journey with anyone who wishes to hear.  Coming from a folky background in the 70's I am a firm believer that music is a social activity and should be shared whenever possible, regardless of skill or talent.  I also love being able to collaborate with other musicians.  Sadly, I am not able to do this in a live environment any more so I hope to do so on here.
My compositions are few and far between but lean to the melancholic, me being a lover of minor and major 7th chords :)  Hopefully, one day, I will write something more uptempo!  Until then I hope you enjoy my journey which has started again in my fifth decade on the third rock.
You should also realise that I am learning to record and produce at the same time and get it wrong regularly so please forgive any pops and squeaks ;)
Finally many thanks to those who give me encouragement.  Special thanks go to Wes and to Hannah Duncan (HanJan) who have taken the time to comment on what I have produced so far and to encourage me to explore my music.

Hello welcome to my Soundcloud and great to see you on my page! 
Music comes intuitively to me and has always been part of my life. I was classically trained in the piano from the age of 5, attended a specialist music school, took all my grades, then didn't pursue music seriously for about 20 years. Now I've discovered electronic music and composition and I'm just enjoying improvising and exploring different styles, so I hope you like the variety you'll find here. All the piano tracks are really me playing and my own compositions, with a little help from Logic to get rid of the bum notes. You can probably hear the classical influences in my music, like Bach and Debussy. If you're interested in me doing a piano part with you or for you via the net, please just message me.


I love to learn new things. New instruments, new vocal styles, new methods of expression.
Getting an idea of what's representative might take some time for an observer but I hope it's worth your time.
I guess in a broad sense I'm a producer.
I have a home studio mentality, where I have started with the best instruments I could afford at the time and over a few decades gradually build up from there.
I've been drawn to many instruments and artists, which has made me very inspired to create.

I'm grateful for the privilege I have to be able to play, sing and direct my music from every point of view.
It's an understatement to say that 2020 has been unusual for everyone, to say the least, but I'm looking to step up significantly in terms of music production quality and hopefully quantity. 
My music has been a serious hobby for a long time, but it doesn't feel right to leave it there. It just feels natural to go deep on music while I'm in lockdown.

I hope you'll find something you enjoy. 
Please get in contact if you would like to collaborate.
Not promising anything, but I could be your sound engineer, session player, singer, co-writer or just someone to bounce ideas off.

Stay well. Look after you and go from there.
