born on april 19, 1970 i was given as a new born son to a very young couple who barely knew themselves. memories of my first years are a collection of blurred non-sequential mostly disturbing events. that is a tale of it's own. i survived those troubled years to find myself in the very loving care of my granparents anastasia & eric. on and off i lived with them until the age of 16 when i left home to join the navy. at the age of 22 i had my first experience of singing. karaoke was a popular thing in the early 90's. 18 months later my brother formed a band. i was enlisted as the vocalist. during one of our first jams i wrote my first ever song: jasmine. it was written for my daughter. from there i explored my talent forming bands, mainly with friends. currently i am in a covers band 'splinta' the bass player of which was in the original band my brother formed.
i am now 32 and have written a small number of tunes since my first one which i now bring forward. this site is for those songs
