He picked up his first guitar when he was 8. And then put it down again -- for 7 years "It hurt my fingers!". Luckily for us, aged 15 he picked it up again...

He likes big riffs and meaty guitar solos -- the first album he bought was Appetite For Destruction, and he wishes he'd written "Back in Black" by AC/DC. A perfectionist, his fascination with technique -- and sheer bloody-minded focus - led him to learn what is now his signature 'lap-tapping' method. A mate bet him £20 he couldn't learn it in a week. He could -- as the 600,000 and growing who have viewed the astounding Youtube videos of him will testify. His first memory of his younger brother is of Mark spilling Rice Crispies and trying to hide the mess under a miniature table. His influences run the gamut from guitar players including Slash, Angus Young, Brian May, Richie Sambora, Tom Morello, John Mayer, Eric Mongrain and Justin King. Oldest by one year and one week, he is the introvert brother, with a pilots license and maths degree too.

2 cups vinyl, 2 cups microphones, 1 cup bass guitar, 1.5 cups drums, mixed in a large crate, add 1 tablespoon old school hip hop, 2 tablespoon funk, blend thoroughly than simmer at 450 degrees for 3 minutes 20 seconds. Now you're ready to FUNK SH*T UP! This is what happens when these prairie boys create and perform their music. Canadian hip hop group ABSTRACT ARTFORM is a perfect recipe of golden era hip hop combined with funk and soul from the 70's, and of course some new school influence. Members who have all discovered their passion for music at young ages, with a blazing path started by lead vocalist/producer Kid A's musical roots, the future of Canadian hip hop couldn't be brighter. 450 degree's bright. The release of the 2nd full length LP His Story In The Making will pave that trail the previous LP, Prairie Kid started. With success and plenty of recognition from Much Music, to Microsoft sponsorship, North by North East festival feature, countless interviews, raving reviews and shows all across Canada. It couldn't be better said than the catchy hook-line from the track Here We Are, "Here we are. We're gunna do something, to change the way it is."
