Thanks Jim
With Monk & Canatella, I played Glastonbury festival, headlined Ashton Court Festival in Bristol, toured extensively in Europe and also represented Great Britain at the G8 summit in Japan.
I've also had the good fortune to have recorded at some of the best recording studios in the country, including Rockfield Studios in Monmouthshire, and Peter Gabriel's Real World.
I've released around ten records including two albums and had music appear on television advertisements and films worldwide.
I'm going to be playing exclusive UK dates with the band to coincide with it's release.
We hope to see you at one of them!!
