ABOUT

I am Canadian-born but grew up in South Africa. My wife and I were professional musicians back in the day. I have been writing songs since I was 15 and I have been playing the guitar (mostly acoustic) and keyboards/piano since that time as well. I have a wide range of musical interest, love good lyrics and harmonies as well. I am not into metal, dubstep, EDM, etc.
