I was born in East Belfast in 1956. After losing my sight in 1980, I turned to writing as a way of navigating and expressing my world. I am a long-time member of Ards Writers, and have written over 300 poems, lyrics, and short pieces, with several being published into print. Known by my friends as “The Romantic Poet,” I continues to write from my home by the sea in Portavogie.

Up in the Air is a rock band dedicated to pushing the boundaries of music.  We range from rock, metal, rap, hip hop, soul, art rock, and jam band styes (And more).  We aim to create music that has emotional impact and that is a world of it's own.
