About / Biography

Style: Folkish.

‘Original songs about Life. As it is!’ Music to not be taken seriously. Except sometimes. One man, one guitar, many story songs ranging through love and money or the lack of either, and the underbelly of life like death and dog ownership.’

'A happy Tom Waits!’

‘Looks like Hulk Hogan with a voice like a Richard Burton who can sing!’

Dubbed ‘Grandfather Grassroots’ by a favourite regularly played venue.
