Lisbon
Lisbon is my favourite city in the world. It is a magical place like no other, where I’ve got so many memories with family, friends, and fellow karaoke and dive bar patrons. It’s got an amazing history, beautiful architecture, delicious food, stunning views and an atmosphere that nowhere else I’ve been comes close to. More importantly for me, my mother is Portuguese and I’ve loved visiting her country with her every year, finding out more about the wonderful city she comes from. It was, therefore, only fitting to write a song about this marvellous place. My new single, Lisbon, is out now on all streaming services. You can listen to the song here.

Motown
Visiting Hitsville in Detroit, where Motown operated and where so many of the incredible records by Smokey Robinson, The Temptations, The Four Tops, The Supremes, Marvin Gaye et al were made was one of the most inspiring and uplifting experiences of my life. It made me remember why I want to be a singer songwriter. It’s not because of the drivel that’s currently in the charts. It’s because of those melodic, soulful, joyous songs that brought the world together and changed music forever. The influence Motown has on my songwriting is enormous. Berry Gordy is also a true icon for any aspiring entrepreneur like me. I only have good things to say about Detroit.

First solo gig
Here's a bit of footage from my first solo gig. Weird to not be behind a drum kit.
