OK, here’s the plan - I’m interested to see how much of a buzz a modest number of twitter-followers can create about a particular site/service/artist/whatever, so I’m running a competition, in which y’all get to come up with whatever ideas you like to send your twitter-readers back to my site, or to my videos on […]

Sunday’s gig with Patrick Wood and Roy Dodds went very well - thanks to those of you who came along. The venue, The Brickhouse on Brick Lane in East London, was suitably strange - on three levels (ground floor and two balconies, the top one had beds on it!) and amazing food, and we had […]

Well, those were two of the most enjoyable days of music making I’ve had in a long time!
Here are two more videos from the recording session today - both of the same tune, the first one is of me recording bass fills between the vocal, and the second one is a bass solo on the […]

I’m in North Lincolnshire at the moment, with Dave Bainbridge, guitarist and keyboardist with the band Iona. Iona have been a favourite band of mine for years, so when Dave contacted me via Myspace about being involved in his new project, ‘Open Sky’, I was rather excited.
Yesterday was spent mainly improvising and finding out how […]
