It's frustrating actually, the time involved in getting something released these days. My new CD has actually been finished for a year. It's only now that it's being released

I've written lots of songs on the piano. My mother had a piano and it was the first instrument I played

I do to keep things sounding fresh. Sometimes just changing the running order of the show is a good idea.

The Beatles and The Stones were basically inspired by American Rhythm and Blues

I had to learn chord shapes... I bought books with chord charts. I used to listen to all kinds of pop music.

What I've always lacked is a really strong band to back me up.

These days there's so much technology and ways you can learn. There are videos and CD roms.
