Artist description One guy, a borrowed computer (now able to use his OWN!!!) and a 14 year history as a guitar/bass player/composer. After three failed guitar-based bands, I tried it alone with new instruments and new freedoms.

Press Reviews Stop Press!!! Have been granted exposure TWICE now through Sound Quality (ABC National, Australia). Host Tim Ritchie had many kind words to wax about me and even took the time to chat via email. Thanks again Tim! To those who can catch his show, you should (if you aren't already). 10pm Friday nights (latest program) and 9pm the following Saturday (repeat of latest). Visit Tim's website for the programs featuring my work (09-02-2001 & 09-03-2001) and a massive backlog of more deserving music than my own. [main site - http://www.abc.net.au/rn/music/soundqlt/soundqlt.htm] [playlist archive - http://www.abc.net.au/rn/music/soundqlt/index/SoundQualityChronoIdx.htm.] You will need Real Audio Player to hear them. It is also possible to hear the show while it is broadcast using RealAudio Player (although the exact method of doing so escapes me, I know for a fact that it IS possible) so there is really no excuse, even if you live in Outer Mongolia, as long as you have internet access, you can still hear the show (it's not IMPOSSIBLE, people! Highly IMPROBABLE yes, but not impossible) - and you really do owe it to yourself... and your children.... the kids next door.... Rin Tin Tin.... the Gipper.... do it for yo momma.... I go now already....

Additional Info 1st Track of 4th album completed 05-02-2001. Title = Behind Her Gaze (5:54). Status: will be posted upon albums completion
