Before I can remember, my mom tells me I would sing to myself to self-soothe. She told me once that I escaped my crib and was sitting on the dresser, singing and watching myself in the mirror. So I expect that I have always loved music, and to this day.

I’m aged 6 (mouths the word “six” ala the Joker in The Dark Knight) and I see Chitty Chitty Bang Bang for the first time and think I realised I really enjoyed music and where it took me. I then nagged my Mum for the soundtrack album and tried to work out how to play the tunes on my Grans piano.

Watching Michael Buble’s Feeling Good video. I dunno why. I just vividly remember being home from school for lunch and watching it on TV and falling in love. Probably why my music still drifts more in the jazz/big band/crooning area. And probably why I love Fallout so much more than Skyrim/Oblivion.
