I’ve delivered well over 1,000 performances in Second Life and each one has been a genuinely live event. I don’t use backing tracks or any kind of special effects to artificially enhance the quality of my delivery. In an age when what you hear can be very different to what actually happened in the studio, I salute those of you who support genuine live performers – particularly when I forget which chord comes next!

Creativity arises at the confluence of experience and personality. I have always hoped that my songs can help people who are stuck … like I was. People who are lost … like I was. I understand music to be something that gets beneath the surface and speaks with clarity and authenticity. With the lyrics, I look for metaphors and parables that chime and occasionally gently nudge. I hope you find something to enjoy.
I showcase some of my songs on Soundcloud where they are free to listen to.
I invite you to find a little time to visit my web page on Bandcamp where you will find recordings of songs written by me, together with songs written in collaboration with Morgue McMillan. There is also a lot of instrumental stuff and songs with a ghostly theme. They are also free to listen to and can be downloaded for a small fee.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
