About Me

Immersed in a stinking mire of dense guitar treacle, I'll tremble across the bedsit floorboards to rifle through a curvatured stack of gleaming laptoppery, picking up a mould-speckled avant jazz platter on the way, all the while attempting to translate these worrying eardrum vibrations into semi-coherent sentences. Right now I'm also writing for Downbeat, Jazzwise, Songlines, We Jazz, Qwest TV, The New York City Jazz Record & The Brooklyn Rail. I've also contributed regularly to The Guardian, The Independent, the BBC Music website, Jazziz, London Jazz News, Mojo, Q, Select, Time Out, The Gramophone, The Wire, The Quietus, The Arts Desk, The Birmingham Post and Amazon.co.uk.
