This is an online diary about my life as a jazz pianist in the UK. I don't give details of every single gig that I do - I just select the ones that are interesting for whatever reason. I hope that it will be a source of amusement and inspiration for any music lover or musician. It's not really about work: but my life.

After millions of pounds worth of refurbishment Dale Hill Hotel and Golf Club had their official re-opening yesterday and today. The new general manager (David Collier) was originally at the Spa Hotel where I often play the piano for weddings and functions. I've known him for years and it is so nice to see him doing well for himself. Also my old friend Robert Gee was the toastmaster - we keep coming across one another at these events.

Robert Gee on the hop.
Mellow jazz pianist for any event
