Home Turf:
South Africa; currently based in Los Angeles
Education:
I am self-taught. No formal composition study at all.
Instruments:
Piano and keyboards are my main instruments and I use guitars and custom-made string instruments a lot, but I have been known to play whatever is lying around (rulers, jars, rolls of tape) literally.
Musical Influences:
John Williams, Dave Grusin, John Powell, John Barry, Alberto Iglesias, Ennio Morricone to name only a very few.
What is the best thing you've ever splurged on? What's the dumbest way you've injured yourself?
A trip back home to South Africa after lockdown. Testing a soldering iron with my fingers.
What about you sounds made up but is true? What's the least useful skill you possess?
I've performed for queens (Queen Elizabeth II) and presidents (Nelson Mandela). I can empty a full bottle in 2 seconds.
