I very much started out playing instruments very late in life, and spent much of my earlier days listening to it, rather than playing it. I am very much a self taught musician and regard my instruments very much like implements, tools or devices to write with, rather than being anything remotely near a good playing musician of any great technique.
I guess I really got into instruments more back in 1994 when I got into my first band (though I did learn to play the Harmonica when I was 8 years old) it was around this time I wrote a song on the Guitar entitled Oldtime Street. The song is very much even today one that contains some of the finest lyrics I have ever written, and very much perhaps inspired me to carry on.
Though the band back in 1994 was a very short affair, it was not long after I got into a R&B band performing Rock & Blues in various pubs around my own town Birmingham. I was very much the lead singer in this outfit which lasted some 6 years. Though during these years the band had gone through several line up and name changes and came to a stop in 2001. I suppose it was a bit of relief in a sense, because it's quite easy to put a band together, but murder to keep everyone happy, and keep it going.
Even though I only really did Vocals and played my Harmonica in the band, I still found time now and then, for my guitar, and my keyboards at home, and I also contributed in a big way to our own compositions in the band.
My tools are as follows:
Studiologic VMK-188 Plus 88 Key Midi Controller Keyboard.
Yamaha PSR E303 61 Key Keyboard (Used Via Midi)
Yamaha Acoustic Guitar.
Various Harmonicas in many Keys.
Audio Technica AT2020 USB Microphone.
Various VST Software for Keyboards & Mixing.
Cubase 5.
Ableton Live 8.
Steinberg Wavelab.
Influences are from mainly 70's Prog/Rock/Blues/Traditional Folk/Electronic Music.
