I am a singer/song writer/hip hop artist from manchester, I have been into music from a young age but it wasnt until i lost my best friend that i started to take it serious, Lots of new material to come, please follow the movement and support if you like what you hear, its all love peace and unity.

I am a singer songwriter from Manchester UK. I have played in bands and duos and done solo work from the age of 12. My style is eclectic I guess you could say although my passion lives in Country Music and Rock. I have travelled the USA extensively and been lucky enough to write with some fantastic people in some amazing places, but when it came down to it, my main reason for doing most of this came from working with the supremely talented Mike O'Neill, who I still work with and hopefully always will.

I've loved music ever since I can remember. I have played numerous musical instruments since I was a kid, the violin being the instrument I was best at and played to a decent level and attended the Royal College of Music at the age of 10.

I've been making music since the days of Mod music / Tracker music on the legendary Atari ST and the Commodore Amiga. The days when CPU resources were minuscule but you could still whack out a decent tune. It was a great time for music lovers and future music producers, DJ's and artists.

As for my taste in music, I'm a huge fan of R&B, Soul, Funk, LO-FI, Vaporwave, 80s and House but enjoy and appreciate almost all genres, although there are a handful I'm not so keen on!

As for my music, my aspergers/autism insists on quite a bit of melodic repetition as you may or may not notice and also a good mix of genres. I'm a sucker for harmonic surprise. That unexpected chord that gives you chills. That's my favorite feeling in music.

Vocals and backing harmonies are mostly self-recorded (a million takes per line 😆), followed by enhancement using AI voice models to change my voice, compensate for natural imperfections and improve vocal output. In other words, I don't like my own voice but I can hold a tune 😁. Autotune is applied, open source post-processing tools are then used, prior to the mastering stage. Artwork is AI because Photoshop takes too long, sowwy!

I hope you enjoy my music and if you do then please feel free to like, repost and comment. I would really appreciate it :)
