He's been a singer-songwriter, session musician and recording artist since 1973. He was a member of several bands as a vocalist and guitarist from the age of fourteen and started writing his own songs at about the same time.

Over the years he has lived in Cardiff and in London, but has now settled in Carmarthen, south west Wales.
