About

Tell us about yourself?: 

I'm a freelance bass player and teacher living in Southampton, UK. My metalhead buddy Dave got me into patches, and I put my first battle jacket together a few years ago - it's since been revised a few times, and I'm starting to plan the next one. I got into jazz heavily at uni, and listened to almost nothing but that for several years, so I didn't listen to any metal from about 98 to 08. I like the old school 80s bands and the classic bands from then (Big 4, Maiden, GnR etc) and also a lot of modern bands - LOG, Soulfly, Machine Head. 3 Favourite bands - Helmet, Gojira, Hawk Eyes.

What's your reason for joining tshirtslayer?: 

I love patches! Exchanging ideas & photos of battlejackets and finding inspiration for the next one

Do you goto any festivals or shows?: 

No festivals yet - maybe bloodstock this year.
But Southampton has a decent scene and decent venues, and London's not far away, so been to plenty of gigs and plenty more lined up.
