I've been writing songs for a long time, I just love the creativity of music and lyrics. I am very prolific, have just started doing some 'live' videos, really so I can record more of my songs in less time.
I do enjoy studio work, and have just spent the last two years recording my new album 'Pearl'. I am very pleased with it there are some amazing artists on it. It is a very chilled out laid back C.D.
I am from Birmingham originally but now I live amongst the misty mountains of Wales - how can I not be inspired living here - its incredible!
I am also very much into 'positivity' but thats another story.....

INFLUENCES
Generally, I am influenced by people who think for themselves and teach other people via music or art, Ghandi, The Beatles, Led Zepplin, Amy Winehouse (by her talent and not everything else around her obviously!), Kate Bush, Carol King, Peter Gabriel, Lenny Kravitz, Jeff Buckley, Alison Kraus, Jon Bon Jovi, Nerina Pallot, oh so many others
I read loads of metaphysical books and am influenced at the moment greatly by the Anastasia series written by Vladimir Megre, also, Mary Sparrowdancers book 'The Love Story', and the 'Power of Emotions' by Esther Hicks
these are brilliant books -very inspiring

Hey, did you see the new friend inviter that lets you invite your fans from myspace and bebo and and loads of other sites. It's really cool and it puts your referral ID into the message:) http://www.kerchoonz.com/account/invite/ (it's in your account page in the tab that says friends & invites).
somebody on youtube is leaving vandal comments on kerchoonz related videos. I think they've left a message on one of yours :( hope you're doing well xx
Thanks for the friend request. I thought since you have a job of smurf you might like my new song Anastasia, a friend of mine (yes, she's still my friend!) said it reminds her of a smurf song!
we are doing a twitter and facebook integration in the background at the moment, so, soon you will be able to kwitter and ker-facebook from kerchoonz! :)
Hi Sally just thought I'd drop by for another listen :) Noticing the players aren't that efficient?? Just listened to Oh Lord all the way through there from start to finish & it said 0 plays before & after still 0 plays!...hmm not good...
Is it true that the whole song has to be played to be counted?
