About

I’ve been teaching, recording and performing professionally since 2004

I currently write record and perform with the band ‘Thunderstick’ where I have played on ep’s, live albums and webcasts, and studio releases since 2016, as well as the Ozzy Osbourne tribute show ‘Ultimate Sin’

I have been involved in every step of the industry for over 20 years, and have a unique understanding of the place of muscicans amoung the other music related professions.

My teaching practice has been thriving for over 20 years, and I teach both privately and in schools on a weekly basis.
