I'm a singer-songwriter, currently performing as part of duo with double-bass-playing amigo Chris Poole. Our style has been described as REM meets the Waterboys at Big Pink. By me. We've played sets in Leicester at The Musician, The Y, The Odyssey etc, as well as in Essex and elsewhere. We're currently working on our first album, Concealed Exit. The album features the songs we play live, with the luxury of full arrangements. There's a lot of instruments going on in there. My influences include a lot of French songwriters, and there'll be a couple of songs in French on the album. I listen to Jacques Dutronc, Calogero, Louise Attacque and Aston Villa as well as Dar Williams, Richard Shindell, Laura Nyro and The Jayhawks.
