BIO
Conceived, and born, in Johannesburg.
Moved to London as a youngster.
Refused to hold the violin under my chin, rejected my piano teacher but embraced the piano.
Played the trumpet - a lot.
Sister gifted me a cassette of Hunky Dory. My Dad, a guitar. My Mum, the language of emotion.
Formed my first band. Wrote my first love song, my first breakup song.
Moved to Paris to attend the Sorbonne, then to Manchester.
Back to London, where I was smitten by my first orchestral session.
Soundtree began - www.soundtreemusic.com
Got myself married and we have two children.
Music.
