I’m in that strange middling period of time which occurs directly after finishing a record and yet before you can really do anything with it. So in that spirit I’ve done the only thing I know…. WRITE MORE and WRITE MORE WHILE TRAVELING! Next stop is mastering the record. I love setting the track listing […]

I’m either always here or never here, right now I’m always here but soon Ill be everywhere. LOVE my studio room in my very own house. It’s not really a studio like “professionals” would have – I’ve always been a writer rather than a studio engineer. However I have all I need now to realise […]

Back into mixing my second solo record, something so cool about mixing at home. I’ve been around the world and back with these songs and they  feel both more guitar driven yet more experimental than anything I’ve done before, even though I’ve not tried to experiment – if that makes sense.

Mixing starts on my new […]

Hey everyone!  Really happy to announce that I’ve finished tracking my second solo record out in New York and will shortly be mixing back in the UK. As always with my music I’ve pushed myself further in search of new avenues to transport my melody from my brain into the world. This record is exactly […]

Arriving in Kansas by plane and seeing the expanse of yellow dusty fields was exactly as I’d imagined and instantly put me in a totally new mindset for the writing, recording ahead. Been here for four days now and the generosity of spirit and talent is actually quite mind blowing to me. Living in a […]
