Ice Station Penguin was the name of my band in Bristol back in the 1990s but now is an umbrella term to refer to some of my music projects. 

I have three collections of people

•	Songwriting / Playing just for fun
People who will along to practice and are happy to play the music that I have written or arranged to help me work out what works or doesn’t work and update my scores accordingly.

Songwriting 
Aim: Complete a new song every three months

•	Recording music
People who will play the music that I have written or arranged to be recorded. Some people have been to the Songwriting / Playing just for fun sessions and have played the music that has been worked on in those sessions. Others have worked with me separately using my scores and/or audio guide tracks that I have produced. The latter set of people have only met me the recording engineer and none of the other people on the recordings.

Recording music
Aim: Produce a quality recording of 6 songs per year.

•	Playing live
People who will play the music that I have written or arranged to an audience. I envisage two sets of people. The first that would prefer a few rehearsals together before performing and second that would rather work with me separately or on their own, using my scores and/or audio guide tracks that I have produced with one short run through before the performance.

Playing live
Aim: Perform three times a year
