I have been involved in playing and performing in various different folk tradition formats for 50 years(eg. Cotswold Morris, Border Morris, large ceilidh band, small ceilidh band, two piece ceilidh band, street theatre group, acoustic blues trio, music and vocals). I play a variety of instruments, including anglo concertina, melodeons, tenor banjo and other 4 stringed instruments, as well trombone and euphonium. I have performed quite extensively as a semi pro musician and will still be playing again for ceilidhs when we are permitted.

Whilst principally, a musician, with interests in playing mainly English music, I take on many influences from traditional music from many other countries and I also enjoy English songs as well, although more of a listener of those. I keep most of my singing to myself although did spend a happy 8 years in an acoustic three piece blues group, where we all sang as well.
