I write in a contemporary style, similar to Tom Paxton or Ralf McTell. My songs are written from the heart and the lyrics are meant to be listened to. I write about many different subjects, sometimes touching on politics, human situations and life but never too seriously and I try not to preach. All my albums are professionally recorded, produced and engineered using the finest musicians available. I have a number of high profile covers of my songs from artists the like of George Hamilton IV, Vin Garbutt and Martyn Wyndham-Read. All my albums have been top sellers both in England and across the world.
