I love my job because I love to entertain. I never tire of it as I have so much energy it has to go somewhere. I keep fit, drink too much coffee and own too many pairs of sunglasses. I sing as Elwood Blues in a tribute band and that gets me out and about. I write when i can everything from serious to down right dumb. I have a little production company with my brothers, they have the talent being a composer and a professional sound recordist and editor. I bring the coffee. If all else fails I trained as a silver service waiter, you know, to fall back on

I was an actor for around 7 years before going into music which took up more of my time and since have been touring in a Blues Brothers tribute show as Elwood Blues which is still going strong. Appeared in several plays which toured the u.k. playing Romeo in Romeo and Juliet and Little John in Robin Hood and many other smaller roles. I also appeared in a number of live corporate events for training purposes.

TV & Reality

Appeared on Goldenballs and won....nothing. Appeared on 5 Minutes To A Fortune, did very well, took £10,000 through to the last round to which my partner, Jake, from the Blues Brothers lost it all. Haven't let him forget it either

I currently am appearing as Elwood Blues in a Blues Brothers Tribute Show going by the name of Born In Chicago which tours u.k. and Europe. I have a very wide singing range and also play the harmonica. Before performing in the Blues Brothers I was a member of a Crowded House tribute band by the name of Crooked House where I performed as Neil Finn for 4 years playing the circuit in the uk.
