MySpace Layouts MySpace Codes MySpace BackgroundsI'm a Canadian composer/songwriter. I sing, play piano, keyboards, recorder, penny whistle, guitars and others. I've released four albums to date which are: August (1996) Fields (1998) Orion (2000) and Martin Road (2004) All these are available at www.kinesiscd.com under "Canadian artists"In addition to my solo stuff, I've worked as a keyboard player on recording sessions and live gigs. Some of the people I've played for are Ray Lyell, Jacob Moon, Melissa Bel, Steve Cochrane, Volume Water, Bipolar, Christine Leakey, Eden Hill and Neil W. Young. Former bands that I fronted are Perpetual Angelus and Nut Hutch.Lately I'm working on the next CD with drummer Chris Lamont, guitarist Andrew Aldridge, bassist Dino Verginella and singer Sue Fraser. I'm hoping to get it finished this year. I'm afraid that by "this year" I now mean 2008!
