Following studies and early experience in Australia he spent time in Japan, where he formed PERIL with Otomo Yoshihide and Kato Hideki before relocating to Europe in the mid-nineties.Some of the more high profile projects he has been involved with include the band Kletka Red, and touring and recording with, among others, The EX, The Exiles, and Corchestra, and involvement with most of the international improvisation and new music community and festivals.
He also creates video works for use with live music performance and has had pieces shown in Tokyo, Belfast, Berlin, New York and Sydney.
Current projects include TRANSMIT (a guitar driven post-rock project), SPILL with Magda Mayas; New York based trios “Glacial” (with David Watson and Lee renaldo); “The Fell Clutch” (with Ned Rothenberg, Stomu Takeshi and David Tronzo) and a long standing duo with Axel Doerner.
