It turns out that the Nashville session musician who was born in Sussex was formally educated in England, the Isle of Man and Canada - hence the connection with the Manx landscape. He attended Niagara University, majoring in Composition and Music Theory. As a session musician, he has played on over 5000 live, radio, and televised shows and works with hundreds of engineers, writers, session players and artists annually. He has been featured in Guitar Player Magazine, Taylor Wood. Steel and the Peavey Monitor.
