UK
Bio:
vintage record producer! Here's the official blurb -

...yes, I have worked at Abbey Road and Trident, with The Kingsmen, Damon Albarn, some Dandy Warhols, big labels, small labels both in this country and around the world, some bands you know, and a lot of bands you’ve never heard of. I’ve taken a taxi to Euston station with Billy J.Kramer, spent an afternoon in The La’s garden shed, stepped over an unconscious Pete Townshend, had a pastie fight with Eurythmics Dave Stewart, a drink with Glen Matlock of the Sex Pistols, read several books about Bob Dylan, bought one or two albums by Led Zeppelin and The Rolling Stones, and my Auntie Jack lived next door but one to Pete Shotton, childhood friend of John Lennon of The Beatles. Who also worked at Abbey Road and Trident studios.

But it really doesn’t matter what we did or who we worked with when.

But I’m only as good as my last record.

Check out the Happybeat website for less-is-more recording, mixing and mastering,or watch the video about my work here:
