I am lucky enough to make a modest living out of my music. I play every Sunday in a lovely golf club and also play for private functions like birthdays, funerals and weddings etc. To make a living out of something i am truly passionate about is a privilege and something i cherish. If you require my services, please just contact me anytime.

I've been very busy with the music, gigging, creating, and practicing. I've got a new superb, Yamaha workstation. I've been creating many backing tracks and if you are a singer or want a professional sounding backing track, you will find mine to be of the highest quality. My contact details can be found on the contact section of my site. That's it for now. Keep your eyes peeled for more updates and music coming soon. Thanks.

I was instantly captivated by the piano licks of Honky Cat and the ballad beauty of Your Song. I knew from that day, music would be my passion and the piano and keyboards were to be my destiny. Piano lessons ensued and day after day, hour after hour, I worked my fingers to the bone, practicing intensely. The first piano song I ever learned was Ode To Joy. If it wasn't for Elton, the spark may well not have been ignited for the musical passion i possess. Who knows? But either way, I am grateful to Elton for discovering him and the amazing lyrics of Bernie Taupin. I have been a huge fan since.
