I have been involved with the professional music industry for 5 years now. I used to sing, compose, play guitar in my own band, Mute, which gained airplay in the US, UK, Denmark and Canada. Recently I have started a new solo project. I also write and produce songs for other artists. I have also worked in A&R for EMI and as well as managing Libertine Records.
