Influences

For me production plays a huge roll in the mood and direction of songs.

I keep trying to recapture that moment when I first heard Sgt. Pepper's. I was 7 years old and that album absolutely terrified and fascinated me. It had melodies you couldn't change supported by textures and ambiences that were other worldly. Even with Within You Without You - I think it's a perfect album!

Another elusive moment is when I heard Peter Gabriel's Security.
First album to make me cry.


Genesis - Gentle Giant - Boston -Yes - Toy Matinee - Neil Finn 
Thomas Dolby - Joni Mitchell - Shawn Colvin
