His first international tour came in 1984, touring the Caribbean and Europe with "Musical Youth". As well as trombone, he has also more recently taken up playing percussion. John has worked with artists such as Musical Youth, Steel Pulse, Grandmaster Flash,Bitty McLean, Wet Wet Wet, UB40, Simply Red,Tom Jones, Will Young and Girls Aloud. John has been a bandmember of Simply Red since their Blue Album in 1998 and has recorded on every album since then. He appeared in the hit single videos "Ain't That A Lotta Love", "Your Perfect Love" and "Oh What A Girl" and also on the DVD's "Simply Red Live in London","Home Live in Sicily" and "Cuba!". John also recorded on Mick Hucknall's first soloproject "Hucknall Tribute to Bobby". John is currently working for the first time as a songwriter, under his own label SOULaw Records, on his own material.

Freedom

The freedom nature offers us is like no other!

Sun.. Rock.. Sea and her

These images, Sun.. Rock.. Sea and her are from a shoot I did for one of my uni briefs last year, The final images I used are deeper in my blog! here are some of the images I shot on 120 film and did not use because of there softness but wanted to upload because I still love their feel and texture.

Here are two images I shot on digital but also did not use for final hand in but still love.

Balcony

Here is a shoot i did with my girlfriend Rebecca on my home balcony.. I wanted to capture her as natural as possible so i got her to wear no make-up and to wear what she would wear in everyday life.. I shot at sunset to get the sun piercing through from behind Rebecca and to create a nice orange glow!
