Chester

Now based in Morecambe, I have amassed a wealth of influences during my musical foraging across Europe.

In my early days I was largely influenced by folk/punk and festival bands such as The Levellers and New Model Army before heading off to Spain and finding myself involved in a thriving folk scene alongside Dhais, Milladoiro and other leading acts in Galicia.

Upon returning to the UK I was largely based in Cornwall, playing up to 200 gigs/year with hard-working cover band The M'Larkums and folk/bluegrass duo Derry Air. As Derry Air we also toured extensively in France, Spain, Switzerland, Germany and Ireland.

Although largely playing solo at the moment I am also a part-time member of Cornwall-based psychadelic pop terrorists THE VARIOUS ASSORTMENTS, and folky outfits DERRY AIR and FREESPIRIT.
