Welcome to my website. Here I will keep you up-to-date with performances, recordings and other projects.
My
aim has always been to make music that interests me and I am constantly
exploring new ideas and sounds that contribute to my projects. I enjoy
making music that is traditional or explorative or a little bit of both.
I am not a big fan of music labelling (although often unavoidable!) and
have always considered myself a musician rather than the more specific
- folk, fusion, contemporary or traditional musician.
The one theme that threads throughout all my projects is the Scottish identity, culture and all aspects of life associated with them. I am a big believer in our nation and its qualities (although not all positive) and I want my music to reflect this.
I hope you find this site useful and if you have any queries please contact me. Please check back regularly to see what is going on. For more information about my other activities please check out the following websites: Foot Stompin' Records (www.footstompin.com), Hands Up for Trad (www.handsupfortrad.co.uk), Distil (www.distil.org.uk).
