I started in the business as a stagehand at Dundee Rep. whilst
still at school.
Singer/songwriter has been my principal occupation for many years
(5 solo albums). There is a comedic edge in a lot of what I do which,
of necessity, involves many elements of Stand-up.
Lines, and their delivery, are my stock trade.
I can be a very convincing, mature hard man.
