Artist Information

Biography

To describe one's own music would be one-sided and not mean a lot - I don't think my songwriting is of any particular genre. I can say that most people who hear it find a song that relates to their own life, lots say it's real life - some say the tears try to flow. My influences can only be the music from the last 74 years - and I hope some of the joy shows through!
