I started gigging when I was 14 years old, walking around in a pub and restaurant playing covers, and from there on played weddings, functions and pubs for about 10 years before getting into bands and still doing my sole original music.

I am very punctual and arrive an hour before the show for setting up an amplifier microphone and soundcheck.
