At the age of fourteen I picked up my first guitar, an old, Spanish style, nylon string, acoustic. Being the third oldest of four brothers, its a wonder how the old guitar sat unloved and un-played, for as long as it did.

I'm a self-taught musician with the aim of combining percussive and finger style guitar riffs that mesh seamlessly with earnest, honest vocals. My lyrics delve into an array of topics, with an intentional aim at highlighting themes that provoke thought and relay a message or personal experience.

I was born and raised in New Zealand, but now reside in the beautiful sunshine-soaked state of Western Australia. Being such a long way from home, music became my avenue of communication to connect and stay in touch with family and friends back home. Through the encouragement of others, I decided to pursue something more with my music.

I’m proud to announce the first release of my EP titled – Breathe. It will be early to mid Novevber 2014. It follows a successful single release last year around July, which, coupled with a very successful video clip release, shows the direction and style in my music that I hope to become known for.

I’m forever grateful of all the support that has been shown from everybody who has encouraged me to chase my dreams and listened to my music.

Thank-You
