HELLO THERE my name is bob. Welcome to my world. I am left-handed, which means that I am pre-disposed to creativity, music,sensitivity and madness. great.
I've never fitted in - I grew up on a farm in rural england and never really joined the city-dwelling masses. I spent my childhood roaming the countryside, spacing out on nature and making dens. As an adult I also pretty much spend my time roaming the countryside,spacing out on nature and making less dens but more music.
I spent my 20's in Edinburgh - fronting a great band called The Ruffness, and we lasted 6 wonderful years, touring festivals in my old 70's bedford van and spreading a good vibe. sadly as soon as we got signed things got heavy and my sanity and health deteriorated and I had to step back a bit.
It took me a good while to recover - and I tried working in a normal job - but I realised I'm just not wired up to 9-5 "normality" and so have decided to accept being a creative and create. Thus my music... my music is inspired by a love of nature and all things real, but also an extreme sadness at the state of the planet & the mess we're making of it; it seems we live in a world that is hell bent on destroying this beautiful mother earth - and I want nothing to do with it.
...it is said that that the world is about to change dramatically - quite how I don't know, but all around the world there seems to be a shift of consciousness happening, people are waking up - and trying to change the way they do things, and I intend to be a part of that change... and thats kind of what my musics about...enjoy x
