The Frankie Miller Project
In 2001 I started working with Cormac O’Kane. He became a coordinator for the Frankie Miller Project (Wiki info) and invited me to be a part of it. This meant having two of my songs produced by Grammy award winning producers (Peter Henderson and Alistair McMillan) and having my songs put on a showcase CD. The rest is history… I am still a songwriter of nil repute, however I continue to be driven to share my suffering with the rest of the world. A problem shared is, as I often demonstrate, a problem doubled.
Needless to say the experience was a good one, and with two well produced songs and an almost finished video I feel honoured to have been part of the project and my thanks goes out to all those involved especially Cormac O’Kane, and Denise Boyle for introducing Cormac and I in the first place.

Entitled was released in 1993. I hardly wrote any new songs during this period, concentrating on production instead. After the album was released the following few years were focused on performing live and it wasn’t til 1994/5 that any new ideas were recorded. So whilst most of the songs on this page were written in 1990 they were “finished” in 1993, hence them being here.
