Progress on my second album (May 2012): 

Hi guys, I've just finished writing 6 new solo bass compositions and I'm going to start recording this week!  The tentative plan for the album is 10 pieces - the 6 solo compositions and 4 more multi-track compositions.  I'm really excited about this album and I can't wait to share my new music with you guys.  Thanks again for your patience and support!  In the meantime, if you haven't checked it out already, my debut solo album - Sonorous - is available for preview/purchase from iTunes, CD Baby, Amazon and Bassline Publishing.

London Bass Guitar Show (January 2012):

I'll be at the Bassline Publishing stand at the London Bass Guitar Show on Sunday 4th March.  Come on by and say hi if you want to have a chat.  I'll probably be playing a few tunes from Sonorous as well.  It was a lot of fun last year and I'm looking forward to it again!

'The Unforgiven' Arrangement (December 2011):

My newest YouTube video is an arrangement of 'The Unforgiven' by Metallica.  This is my first video using different camera angles and multiple tracks (as well as distortion!).  It was quite a challenge for me and it took me ages to edit!  Here's the link:

'Swan Lake' Arrangement

My newest YouTube video is an arrangement of 'Swan Lake'.  Tchaikovsky has always been one of my favourite composers.  His melodies are really haunting and I love the music for The Nutcracker and Swan Lake - the melodies are absolutely captivating.  My arrangement features several different techniques, including flamenco-style strumming, harmonics and tapping.  I hope I did the piece justice!

Sonorous is now available to preview and purchase from Facebook.
