Thanks for looking in. If you are looking for vintage keyboard parts
for your track, I'll work with you to create what you need. I've got too many musical influences to list, but have been working as a professional musician since my teens. I started playing for a living by backing artists in Working Men's Clubs, often later in the evenings, playing in Cardiff docks clubs in a jazz funk band . I moved on to night clubs in resident bands, experiencing artists such as Johnny Cash, Gene Pitney, Roy Orbison, to name a few in the vibrant music scene back then.
I started to do more TV sessions, and played in the pit band in the New Theatre. A stint in London saw me working as a session musician for Island studios, working with the Sly and Robbie band playing keyboards for
Ini kamoze, and Black Uhuru, and sessions for Grace Jones and others.
I have a studio at my house in Cardiff where I've recorded many Welsh bands, I have also composed and produced music for tv and radio.
Turn around of a track is dependant on my commitments, but generally I like to do them the same day.
I have been a professional musician since my teens and appeared on recordings by artists as diverse as Grace Jones, Van Morrison, Roachford and Steve Winwood. It all began with me playing in working men’s clubs around Cardiff docks. Soon I was performing in resident nightclub bands, and pit orchestras, backing musicians including Johnny Cash, Gene Pitney and Roy Orbison, then running off for late nights in the Casablanca club in the docks with the 'Outsiders 'Pino Palladino, and Aran Ahmun. I was a session musician for Island studios in London, I worked with an array of artists such as the Sly and Robbie band, Ini kamoze, and Black Uhuru, among many.
