Career
He was the bass guitarist for the Scottish rock band Idlewild. His appearance and attitude is classically punk rock and his typical on-stage antics consist of head-banging and jumping around. He became increasingly distant from the band in 2002, and on 29 September 2002 he left the band following a show in Amsterdam in "a rain of misdirected punches".
After leaving Idlewild he joined the band Degrassi.
He has had various other projects on the go, along with Degrassi, and, at the moment is playing in Edinburgh with the band Paper Beats Rock, who have supported Blood Red Shoes.
