History

I started playing bass guitar at age 15, after leaving home early, I found it was a good way to get somewhere to stay as everyone allways needs a bass player, while traveling with a guitar player we had a car accident (head on with a truck) which left me in hospital in a coma with a broken neck, back, wrists, ruptured spleen, liver and punchered lung after being almost dead, I spent 4 months in hospital and started playing guitar as I wasnt allowed to move and bass was too heavy and not practical to play laying flat in bed. After being released from hosipital and going through a recovery period I headed up to Kings Cross and played guitar with 2 other fellows busking which helped me get my rythm guitar strong, I returned to Melbourne to join my first band as a guitar player (Fatal Shock). I left Melbourne and decieded I needed some sunshine so I headed to the Gold Coast in Queensland and joined the first AC/DC concept band (High Voltage) I toured contuinously for 3 years and then started my own band and also started working for other people. I then travelled to Perth, Western Australia, where I started to work solo and started singing as well as playing guitar, but I missed the sun so I headed to Broome, a small remote outback tourist town, where I got regular work as a soloist playing in pubs, breweries and markets. I have always known that I can write prolifically so I decieded to create 5 Albums in 5 years, I am currently up to album 5 in 5 years. I now play guitars in different tunings as well as standard, banjo, ukulele, drums, bass and keyboards, still playing regularly around Broome which I have made home and I tour around Australia playing hotels and festivals.
