I have performed with countless bands and groups over the years, most notably for the last 30 years as a vocalist with the 50’s style doo-wop group The Metrotones. The Mets began as an acappella vocal group creating jingles for London’s Capital Gold and GLR radio stations. Once a band was added we performed all over Europe, appearing on TV, radio and film as well as on a number of recordings.
I also toured as a singer with the Rock ‘n’ Roll theatre show “American Pie“.
As a drummer, I have played for Sophie Garner and her Swing Kings, The Roomates, Al Catraz and the Chain Gang, The Jay Harley Band and The Ray Burns Trio.
I have performed as a vocalist and/or drummer behind a number of visiting American doo-wop artistes from the 50’s and 60’s.
For a few years, I played bass guitar and sang with a Metrotones spin-off 4-piece group called Dapper Joe, but with 2 members relocating, that has been put on ice. But, to fill the void, I now sing with a doo-wop vocal group alongside Jon Pannaman from The Metrotones, John Dobinson from The Senti-Mentals (and a former Metrotones pianist/sax player) and Glenn Brentnall from The Roomates and the Fantoms.
