On himself:
I love singing and making music. I guess it’s my soul making sound.
I follow the law of attraction, my life is the blank canvas and I am the artist. We all have the power to create our own lives. I also follow Nature as to be in tune with Nature is to have ‘God’ on your side.
On work:
I live by my means in a camper and gigging and busking covers the costs ‘most of the time’. I consider myself lucky that I have two jobs that I can come and go to as I wish; Care Work & Music Therapy in mental health, which I love. I am a Community Musician. To any musician out there that hates their job: Community music is well paid and extremely satisfying. Ask your local council for info.
At the moment:
Spring has sprung and so have I. I’m off Ramblin’ and love being free with ‘Dean’ my camper van; playing gigs and busking all over the country; discovering towns, villages, valleys and mountains; making great friends; seeing old friends. I’m touring Ireland in April, Cornwall and the South coast in May, Scotland in June and then we hit the festival season. I’m collaborating and having good times with a lot of musicians/friends along the way. FOLK & ROLL.
On defining influences:
“You may say I’m a dreamer but I’m not the only one” John Lennon. That reached out to me at an early age.
Bob Dylan taught me poetry.
Eckhart Tolle taught me enlightenment and inner peace.
Ian Lungold taught me about the evolution of consciousness.
My friends taught me love.

On the future:
I’m excited about the future. I believe the lead up to 2012 and the years following will bring huge changes to this planet. We will have a choice, to experience hell on earth or heaven on earth. What we pay attention to becomes our level of consciousness. There is a huge shift in consciousness happening right now. We have to stop focusing on negative situations around us and start focusing on what makes us feel good and happy. This will spread peace and harmony. Getting angry about negative things like crimes to humanity will only create more negative energy.
STOP WATCHING THE NEWS!

Bob Dylan’s mum gave him some words of wisdom before he left for New York:
“The road to happiness leads nowhere, happiness is the road.”
