Hello to one and all.   A brief introduction ... if I may ...

I'm a singer/songwriter who prefers to write primarily for other artists.   I'm a keen student of crafting melody with lyric, who would love nothing more than to hear others perform my work.   My early influences came from the music of Bob Dylan, James Taylor and Neil Young, and latterly from the classy sounds of Squeeze and Tom Petty.

For more than 20 years, I made the balance between holding down a full-time career in Business IT, whilst writing my own music in ever diminishing spare time.

During Summer 2004, I made a big decision to quit my business life and enter the world of professional song writing ... full time.   I also decided to leave the UK and set up a new home in Dol de Bretagne, France.

Almost eight years on, I believe that 'career change' to be possibly the best decision of my life!   My studies of the great songwriters continue to hold my attention, and with enthusiasm maintained, I firmly believe my best writing is still to come.

Take a 'browse' through the site, and check out some of my work.   Oh, and thanks for your interest.
