About Me

My day job is as a chartered surveyor. I live with my wife, Heather, in a small Derbyshire village which is a stones' throw from Sheffield.

My only connection with the music world (other than being a fan of many genres and bands) is working at Glastonbury Festival (Sensation Seeker's Stage) which is usually the highlight of the year.

Musical taste includes: Neil Young, Roy Harper, John Martyn, Richard Hawley, The Egg, Eels, Gomez, Elbow, Boxer Rebellion, Brian Eno, EST, Miles Davis, Keith Jarrett, Ali Farka Toure, Tinariwen, and many others.

I was born
In the 1960s
First Gig

Strange Fact

Author of a book of walks published in 1998 - 'Off Peak Walks' - total royalties c £600 in 12 years!
