Only just heard this sad news. I've know him for years from the time involved with Stagfolk, as a member of Silas with James Patterson, with 'supergroup' Crows, as muso for Paddingtons, and Ed Rennie head-hunting him for Housewives Choice!

Above all, we'll miss the endless banter and flannel, the cheer he gave to all, and superb musicianship.

Our condolences to Sheena
