What Instruments do you play?
Piano, Euphonium, Drum Kit.
Are you currently working on any music
projects?
In April this year I set
myself the challenge of composing, recording and releasing a new piece every
month. So far I am on target, and I have a new piano piece called ‘Lost With
You’ which is ready for release at the beginning of July.
What are your 2 favorite careers?
Being a Composer and a
Musician is a very enjoyable way to spend my days… I have always fancied flying
fighter jets for a living too, I must get round to that one…
What are some of your
other favorite activities?
My No.1 favorite thing to do is to visit new places
with my wife, walking off of the well trodden path and getting lost. Sky Diving
is a great buzz and I also like to crash out with a curry and a good
movie.
What is the hardest thing you ever had
to do?
…turn full time with
composing. I teach most days so that we can have a roof over our head, and for
that job, I am very grateful. I would love to teach less and take more time to
complete 2-3 new pieces every month. It takes 30-40 hours to write and record a
new piece, so every download from places like Band Camp, take me closer to
being able to do this full time. The nice thing is that music lovers are
investing in the independent artists that they love, and it actually empowers
us with more time to make what we all love - new music.
What is your most favorite song?
What is your most favorite song?
My favorite song…now that is
quite impossible for me to answer. My favorite song by The Beatles is ‘A Day in
the Life’, although, if I had to choose the coolest Beatles song, it
would be ‘Tomorrow Never Knows’.
Are you usually late, early or right on
time?
I usually time everything so
that I walk through the door right on time.
Are you happy with your life for the most part right now?
Are you happy with your life for the most part right now?
I can honestly say that I am
the happiest that I have ever been. My wife makes my life so much better than I
could make it on my own, I look forward to waking up every day so that I can
see her, and I look forward to coming home to her every night. (I just got
loads of brownie points for that one!)
If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go?
It’s got to be Thailand
What do you think would be the hardest venture for you to give up on?
Give up? No, I don’t think
so.
