I live in Scotland in the country with 3 kids and a lovely wife. I fit music around my work, and tend to write most when I'm travelling and then bring the ideas to life when I get back. Music has been a part of who I am for as long as I can remember. I play guitar, Piano and Violin, and sing when I need to. I was 11 when I wrote my first songs for "GAM". By 16 I was playing covers in clubs with my Dad as "Migrant". At Uni I was in the Ents crew and worked for The Damned, Deacon Blue, RunRig and others, and did some lighting work as well. I played in more local club bands, and have always written my own stuff. Around 2000 I was playing regularly with MERLIN, doing Scottish & Covers, for weddings, holiday resorts, Hotels etc. SInce the kids came along I've stuck to home recording using the internet to share my work. But who knows... I might get back out there one of these days!

Hey internet. You look good, have you lost weight? This is the Civil Program and it is a remix project based out of Austin, Texas. This project was the brainchild of Chris who has another account here with Blue-Sky Spirits. So take a listen and please tell us what songs you want to hear remixed.

Chris - Synths, Guitars, Bass and Production
And many other friends help out where they can

And I've been getting messages asking why the songs up here are not up for download. It's simple law. With my luck I'll get sued if I do that so better safe than sorry.
