• What are the highlights of your career?

  I guess one of the most memorable experiences I've had was playing support to Acker Bilk at the Swansea beer festival , an absolute hoot Haha, in more ways than one . I guess I will never forget playing for three years as part of the resident jazz band in the basement bar of the New Philharmonic Pub , Queens Street, Cardiff , especially on Rugby union days 😉 say no more , and I guess the first ever highlight of my career as a teenager , winning the Neville Cup for the most promising musician in Kent at 15yrs old has to be one of the proudest moments of my life which set me on a path of having a passion for music my whole life . Apart from that I've played as a session musician, met Noddy Holder from Slade on a coffee break , chatted for half an hour ,and didn't know it was him lol. I've also played in big bands and a swing band and pop bands on and off throughout my life.

• What is your competitive advantage (special features)?

  I'm a very good communicative performer , I believe that if we truly connect with a song or a tune , it has the power to stay with us forever , especially if it is a tune attached to a special occasion, like a wedding , anniversary, special birthday , life changing event, celebration ,year after year , whenever we hear that special tune it brings all of the memories and emotions floding back . I believe that life is made up of a series of special moments and that music is crucially part of that . A special song connects with our very soul and never leaves us . That is why I love music so much and why I want to share it through performance.
