Singer-songwriter, born in Swansea, South Wales to an Italian father and Welsh mother. Played Jesus in Jesus Christ Superstar in 1996/97 in the West End, for which he won a Variety Club Award, flirted with royalty (as an ambassador for HRH Princes Trust), got in the UK charts (in a previous incarnation as a pop puppet when he also won the Welsh Music Award for Best Male Artist), written for various successful artists (Meatloaf, Jonathon Cerrada, Anthony Callea, Ruslana), and performed with some very cool dudes (Robert Plant, Dave Gilmour, Roger Daltrey, Paul Rodgers to name but a few!).
Part of a great band called The Storys, alt-country outfit (www.myspace.com/thestorys or www.thestorys.co.uk) and also part of a very cool project called Chimpan-A (www.myspace.com/chimpana or www.chimpana.com), which sounds like Pink Floyd making sweet love to Zero 7 (spoken word, opera, samples, decks and great tunes!). Both albums are out now.
