Personal Description:

I have been passionate about music my whole life.

I started singing at an early age and performed solo at the Birmingham Town Hall with the school choir. During my teens and twenties I was the lead vocalist in local bands including harmonies, song arranging and organising band sessions. I also helped in youth workshops at a local community centre, which was supported by The Princes Trust, to learn various musical instruments, song arrangement and basic studio recording (analog).

As an adult I went to clubs around the UK for a number of years before I began deejaying in small bars and clubs. The first big break was at Hard Times in Leeds, then I moved on to various residencies in clubs UK wide, including boat parties. I have been a resident deejay on Dogglounge Radio (an internet radio station) for 8 years (DJ DubC).

I have produced music, both analog and digital over the years and currently run my own record label, Black Sugar Recordings (**Web Address Removed**).

Also, I own Black Sugar Music Services which teaches music in Birmingham and surrounding areas.

Tutoring Experience:

Music Production, Music Technology, Basic Piano, Keyboard and Deejaying.

Tutoring Approach:

I enjoy one on one tutoring as well as teaching workshops in groups.
