Short Films - a look back

In 2021 I had the pleasure of making a cameo appearance in a student short film, it was great fun - it reminded me much of my first time in a lead role back in 2011 for a short film called "A Dash Of Wine" which was great fun to have made. What both these productions had in common were that the crews contained young people who had a sense of vision for something brilliant in the form of telling their story. In "A Dash Of Wine" I got to act alongside 2 magnificent actresses, Jaya Robertson (who has since gone on to work on a number of productions) and Liz Odey. Hopefully 2022 will afford more time for working on such endeavors!

Current Projects

At the moment I have a couple of music projects in the works - with others in the planning/pipeline.

The Feckers
At the moment we are at the point where we have enough quality songs for the 2nd album, it is just a matter of picking which songs we will work on, and with whom - the talent usually dictates what songs make the cut, it's all down to the artistic merit rather than any moneymaking bullshit. Fortunately we are able to self-produce the new material as we had with our debut album - the mixing and mastering team we are yet to decide upon, as of this moment we have no definitive release plans, this is all subject to the decision making process (which usually will involve either beer or bourbon :)

RPJ
Rob, Paul and Jeff have been busy the last few years with their RPJ collaboration, in fact they have just about completed another new album. I felt very fortunate that they included a tribute to Gary Moore that I co-wrote with Rob on their "Wonderful World" album.
