I really enjoy the process of songwriting, particularly when I'm writing with other people (you can get them to do a lot of the hard work..)
I've collaborated with many people over the journey,here are some of the most recent:
Sarah-Rose (from the band Dash) and I began writing songs together and churned out nearly 60 songs over several years (we didn't muck around). We got a song called "Highway of Red" placed in the film "Old Fashioned", it also became the first song on the soundtrack. Never saw the film unfortunately..... This collaboration had a name - Snapdragon
Check out some of our songs on bandcamp: snapdragonmusic
Janine (from the band Naked Raven) and I had known one another for years before we finally wrote some songs together; after about a year of chipping away out popped the album "Blink"! We toured the album throughout Germany. Chrissie sang backing vocals and another friend, David Carr (see below), played bass.

Chrissie and I at soundcheck in Bruge. Such a beautiful place... It was fun touring with my darling!
David Carr and I became Texta Popeye for one crazy year, and what a year it was! We laughed and laughed and laughed.... Fume in Cubes was the result.
The ultimate brain freeze
