MUSIC

MUSIC continues to play an important role in my life.

Initially inspired as a youngster by my grandfather Arthur Greenslade, whom I was fortunate enough to have living nearby as I was growing up in the south of Sydney, Australia. Look up his musical career up, you will most likely have heard his piano playing, conducting, or writing on music over the years, and you will be able to imagine just how in awe of his career I was, and continue to be. I am a lifelong student of music, and consistently try to approach every musical opportunity with the openness and embrace of someone who simply loves the artform.

I am a multi-instrumentalist & composer. I also consider myself a Trombone player. Over the years I have picked up different
instruments and abilities due to interest or requirement for gigs or recording including the entire Brass Instrument family (Trumpet, Euphonium, Tuba, Horn, etc) alongside Keyboards, Guitars, Basses and Percussion. As a composer, my works have primarily been in the Jazz and Funk genres, with some forays into Americana and Electronic spaces.

I am a producer. Inspired by greats such as Quincy Jones, Rick Rubin, George Clinton, Brian Eno and George Martin (amongst a whole host of others), I have been fortunate enough to have recorded and mixed a host of fantastic artists, from Large Jazz Ensembles through to Singer-Songwriter Duos and Classical Basoon Trios.

As I hope you will realise through exploring my pages - I do not consider myself tied to any one genre or label of musical creativity - other than simply MUSIC.
