        "bio" : "I find it quite difficult to describe myself as an artist, and the music I create. Although I tinker with other instruments, I feel most at home playing acoustic or electric guitar, I've been playing on and off since I was six years old, so I guess it's a big part of who I am now.\n\nThe idea for a song can start with a few words, or a guitar riff. I spend many hours recording basic ideas that sound interesting, then overdubbing other guitar parts, until I hear something that sounds right. If I get Goosebumps, it's usually a good sign. If you, the listener, play the finished song and get Goosebumps, then I guess I've done a good job.\n\nI enjoy the process of creating arrangements for guitar, often a three or four part ensemble with other instruments thrown into the mix to add a little extra colour, and variety. I try to make my songs interesting, but not too complicated. I want people to go away humming the tunes I have created,\n\nI love it when people say \"I can't get that song out of my head\". I recommend you stop reading and start listening now, so that you can make up your own mind...",
