MUSICIAN, SONGWRITER, PRODUCER
Welcome to my little sliver of the www. I am incredibly blessed to work in this business which can be SO hard to break into and earn ANYTHING, let alone a living!
For me, it’s all about the vibe. Sometimes it’s the groove, sometimes it’s the over-all picture, but I just KNOW when it’s cooking on gas and when it’s not. Above and beyond anything though, THE SONG IS KING!
When producing, I now predominantly work out of my own studio (Shabby Road) as I have everything that I need right to hand. It makes it more cost-effective for my clients and has a laid-back chilled atmosphere. I only work with artists that I WANT to work with and this makes the process incredibly stream-lined. I can hear the finished product in my head before we start and once the starting pistol fires, the song comes together very quickly.
I work with solo artists, singer-songwritters and bands, but I’ll ONLY work with projects that I WANT to work on. If you’re looking for a grime or drill producer, then you’re probably better off looking elsewhere.
It’s not easy to categorise what my ‘thing’ is, but ‘organic’ is my buzzword. I love rock, prog, pop, jazz, almost anything, but it has to be ‘real’. It has to have some sort of a soul. Please check out my showreel for examples.
