Aloha! I am a composer, soundtrack producer and Chapman Stick® player.

I create cinematic music for film and contemporary dance performances, enjoying collaborating and integrating my music with the visual arts.

A keen surfer, whenever possible I pack the surfboards into my old VW van and head for the Atlantic waves. The ocean, riding waves and my surfing travels continue to provide a rich source of deep inspiration for me. In winter storms I also enjoy spending many hours on the beach recording the sound of the waves.

As a member of Restless Blue I am working with the band on the completion of our forthcoming CD release, and we are currently performing in national theatre shows with the exciting Crossover Intergenerational Dance Company.

Before joining Restless Blue, I recorded and toured playing guitar in a number of innovative groups, including Iron Clowns, The Guitar Orchestra, Graffiti, Labottiflo and The Dwoms

My primary instrument is the Chapman Stick, a 2 handed tapping instrument that combines the range of both bass and guitar on a single fretboard. It is a powerful compositional tool with its own sound signature, which I expand further through processing and looping technology. I studied initially with the Stick maestro Jim Lampi, later with Daniel Schell at his European Tap-Guitar Seminars held annually at the Académie d´été de Wallonie in Belgium, The Institute of Music Technology in London, and I continue to benefit from ongoing study of the Guitar Craft principles taught by Robert Fripp.
