Writing
My writing is largely focused on reviewing music technology equipment for trade publications and writing about education; normally with a music and/or technology slant. I have written for numerous publications and below are links to some of my published work. If you would like to commission me to write any copy for you or your organisation, please get in touch and we can discuss the work.
Music
I am an accomplished guitarist, bassist and vocalist and an average keyboard player. However, my real skill is as a music technologist and producer. I taught guitar for 15 years, have played for countless shows and have worked as a performer in all genres. Please visit my LinkTree link below to some of the music that I have made via all the usual providers.
Audio
I am incredibly experienced audio engineer and have developed a specialism as a mix engineer. I primarily work as a live engineer these days but have also provided studio mixing for a diverse range of artists and projects including SK Shlomo and Zeo Church.
If you would like me to record or mix your project please listen to examples of my work and get in touch with me below.
