COLLABORATOR!
HOLY ISLAND RECORDS
D.M. Rice is a name well known in the local music scene and the founder of Holy Island Records, a DIY label based in the UK––inspired by the beauty of its namesake.
​
I have been working with Derrick on an upcoming release for his Singles series. My song, Red and Gold will be featured along with an alternate version of the song 'Always' which Derrick originally recorded for the EP.
​
There is also the possibility of further collaboration in the future. Watch this space!
TIME TO CHANGE
In the past I have been a Time to Change champion for East Essex. As part of this I worked with a couple of other champions to write a song for 'Time to Talk Day' called The Power of Small. This was covered by Greatest Hits Radio, I had an interview with the producer and they played clips of it throughout the day. There was also an article on the website (https://planetradio.co.uk/greatest-hits/essex/news/time-to-talk-day-colchester/)
PANAMA CITY
I am currently working on an acoustic duo with my friend and fantastic singer/songwriter, Rosalind Harniess. I have limited experience singing with someone else so we took the first few months learning covers and figuring out how our voices work together, ultimately playing a gig to showcase this. The plan has always been to write originals and this is what we are doing now. Watch this space....
THE MONROE CONNECTION
The Monroe Connection (Also known as Die a Libertine is a band I was a member of for many years. I played guitar and sung occasionally. We didn't play live much but we did write and practice and fair bit. Near the end of the band we headed into Unit One Studios to record a 3 track EP which to this day is incomplete. We recorded 3 tracks in one day and they sound great but the vocals on one track need re-doing and they all need mixing. Who knows, maybe one day it will get completed.
​
For now there are a number of live videos on YouTube and a Facebook page you can check out if you like.

THE MOTH PATROL
My first band. Started in 2005 and came to an end in 2006. During this time we released two EP's and wrote a good amount of songs considering. I learnt a huge amount from this band but also found my confidence knocked by the time it finished. There are songs from this band that I can still play and sing in full even to this day. I even have a tattoo based on the old TMP logo. If you want to our EP, Montage you can check it out here:
TRON VS THE AUTOBAHN
'Tron Vs The Autobahn first met in a small village in Omsk in 1984. Shortly after recovering from the vicious assault Tron became a drug rehabilitation worker in Moscow. This is where Tron met Autobahn for the second time.
​
This second meeting was to be the start of something wonderful. Shortly after Autobahn recovered from the long awaited retaliation he became a DJ/Producer in Slough.
​
Two years after setting up his record label "Sark speedlimit records" he received a demo tape from and artist called Tron Verses. The two met up and after settling some old scores they proceded to release the single "Hasselhoff Underground".
​
The single, was a collossal failure.
​
Homeless and now pennyless Tron Verses' future was bleak. This was to be the turning point in the bands career. They joined forces to become the mighty and vastly influencial Tron Vs The Autobahn.
​
Tron Vs The Autobahn now live together in their semi detached bungalow/studio in west sussex. When not recording they enjoy gardening, Owl hunting and playing fetch with their gimp Dennis.'
Tron Vs The Autobahn was never intended to be a serious project. It was essentially my mate Anth (Tron) and myself (The Autobahn) pissing about with Fruity Loops. Our greatest claim to fame being a friend using the song 'Hasselhoff Underground' as his ringtone whilst working as a taxi driver. All the tracks we created are available here:
