YOUR EYES CD

In February 2006 I released a CD selling 500 copies in about 8 months or so which helped raise money for projects in Africa through Elim missions. From the release of the CD I began to gig regularly in venues like oasis in Belfast, pulse (washbasin), various church meetings and similar venues. Shortly after the release of "open skies" I got airplay on U105 and some Internet radio stations. The interest in my music grew, and I received some offers from independent record companies to go full time, one of which I was so close to signing the dotted line with. However music was not one of my priorities at this time in my life and I made the hard decision to reject the offers. So as planned I went to Bible College in Glasgow (ICC). When I complete my studies at ICC I hope to go into full time cross –cultural ministry. I recently released a new album,”Your Eyes” which I recorded at the Foundry Music Lab with Graeme Duffin (ex wet wet wet guitarist) and Sandy Jones. Issues like poverty and injustice influence my music. My music is also influenced by my own experience of life, difficult things that I have gone through, or been challenged by. My music is not worship music as such, it feels like it is more raw than contemporary worship music, and it doesn’t follow the typical worship genre structure lyrically or musically. However I have wrote some songs with congregational use in mind. In my music I try to be honest about my experiences, or those things that concern, move or motivate me. At the centre of it all there is Christ. For in all the things I write about,my faith in God is central, for many of the concerns and passions that I have I believe are ones God places on my heart and mind.
