About Me |
|
| Started playing around the pubs and clubs of Surrey at fourteen but decided at twenty that a career in music was out of the picture. Spent the intervening years grafting, raising a family and playing a bit here and there. Got round to listening to some early influences again, but in more depth and the feet started tapping and the fingers got itchy. Started gigging again in 2006 and this year finished an album of originals called Thankful. Now gigging solo, also duo with Ian Mitchell on harmonica and vocals and some band gigs with Steve Faithfull on drums. Really loving it this time round, ready to go wherever it goes.BROOKES & MITCHELL (GRINDELWALD SWITZERLAND) | |
