about

This is some music I've recorded with people I've been fortunate enough to work with and build musical and personal relationships with, in some cases, over many years.
I am very grateful to all of the musicians here for sharing their knowledge and passion and expertise.
Some of the music I have written, two tracks are by one of the other performers, and two standard/Jazz tunes.
This is some modern Jazz influenced by the likes of Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, Miles Davis and their musical 'descendants'. In being so, the music has roughly equal quantities of written and improvised elements.

''.....Inspiring and in the moment playing. Love it'' - Jerry Bergonzi.

''...... brisk, sensitive drummer capable of great dynamic and textural range'' - Chris Parker
