First and foremost: I am a love punk and a doubting Thomas.

My father was a concert promoter and my first live music experience was when I was 6. I started playing guitar soon after and did my first gig at 15. We sucked and the plug was pulled, however I was hooked and I've been at it ever since.
I build, repair and modify guitars for a living and delve into vintage ideas but have my roots in the garage.
But that's not why I'm here:
I'm looking to complete some tracks that I've been writing during my days off while touring. I'm wanting to collaborate with artists outside my usual zone.
What I'm going for is a mix of electronics, very fuzzy guitars, dialog mixed with smooth flows and samples. Throw in lots of crash and burn guitar breaks and I'm in business.
Techno multiplied by post punk and grunge!....f*ck it... someone needs to do it.
Let's see what happens!

Instruments with strings and anything to get a melody or useful noise. I bang on keyboards from time to time as well.

A low budget guitar shop next door to a printing press or the sound of a radio slightly off channel.

I am a musician...therefore I do very little else.
Just: Eat, Sleep, Smoke, Laff, Love ....and walk in the rain.
