Let me introduce myself... I'm a musician, a writer & an artist. I was born in London,many moons ago but only hung out there for a few short months. I moved over to Cork then & have lived here since. To say music is my life would be an understatement (and a cliche!!). I eat it, sleep it and..well play and write it I guess!!! I wrote my first song when I was six. It was called "Gotcha Going". I think that says it all. Hopefully I've improved since then though!! I picked up a guitar when I was 14 & taught myself to play it. I'm a leftie but in my haste I purchased a right-handed axe as they had no leftie guitars in the shop. Ohhhh the hate I had for the guitar at that point!! I cannot possibly express the annoyance it caused me. However, I was determined to succeed at my weapon of choice. So I got the strings changed round etc. etc. and voila!! I still sucked. But the strumming was a lot more natural to me as I was using my left hand so I kept going. I persevered & continued to teach myself, and after hours of practice a day I quickly became a quite competent guitarist. My guitar has become a part of me. I went away for a weekend during the summer, to my uncle's wedding to be exact. Anyways to cut a long story short I couldn't bring my guitar as it wouldn't fit in the car with the suits and stuff. And, get this....I actually got depressed. I had no way of venting my emotions & frustrations and it really affected me!!! My taste in music is quite varied at times. I try to listen to a wide range of genre's so as to have that influence shine through in my music. My passion, however, lies in rock. At the moment, indie rock is what I drown my ears in most. x Tracks available for download (if any): http://www. http://www. http://www. http://www.
