In His Own Words
About him
I'm young at heart and have a cheerful outlook on life. I have a wonderful family with 4 x gorgeous grandchildren who I am really close to. My friends are very special to me, and I see them all on a regular basis. I love lots of different styles of music especially Pop Music / R & B / Funk & Jazz. After taking early retirement 9 years ago from the family business which my son now runs, I decided to start playing the saxophone & Clarinet again after not playing for 35 years. I now play at numerous venues on a regular basis as a soloist and with my own 6-piece band & a big band which plays at all the large theatres in Northamptonshire (see pic). Some of my solo concerts include playing & talking to people that have dementia. To be able to help them recall happy day's is extremely rewarding and to see them smile is absolutely wonderful & fills my heart with joy! I was a professional musician from the age of 18 to 27 before starting the family business. I love countryside walks / being outside / going to live music concerts / eating out at nice restaurants / pubs / enjoy cafes. I enjoy holidays in this country and abroad. All of the above would be lovely to share with someone very special and would make my life complete. Please do not hesitate to get in touch it would be so lovely to hear from you. BOB
