I have a diploma in jazz and a bachelor degree in music from the University of Canterbury, New Zealand, majoring in arranging and composition. I have played piano for 20 years, guitar for 15 years and had classical plus blues training in singing for 5 years. I have played professionally with a variety of bands, from rock originals through to instrumental jazz. I am currently involved in a funk/jazz originals band called Sweet Saxess and we are in the middle of recording an album. I have written and played a wide variety of musical styles, including classical, rock, big band, barbershop, jazz and latin.
