Began murdering perfectly good songs as a drummer in bands at the turn of the millennium. Then started writing songs of my own on guitar shortly after — completely incestuous in terms of influence and style and playing them with whoever; Graeme Stephen, John Mitchell (folk band Green) amongst others.

Went to college to study music and learn a few more notes, avoiding taxes and shitty soul-draining part-time jobs, instead doing various session work both on strings and skins around Aberdeen.

Joined the Simon Gall Band on drums, a total rammy of jazz, gavotte, soul, prog and porno music. Disintegrated before achieving our full potential. Then in the rubble and smoke found Divine Davy, beginning a musical voyage which continues to soar through assorted constillations.

Now working mainly with Davy and the Pictones, also collaborating with the sublime harp-playing of Spider MacKenzie as a duet and providing a vague kind of rhythm at local jazz gigs and with various fellow singer-songwriters.
