About Me

Hi, I’m the founder OneMusicLife.com. My aim is to celebrate the music and artists that I love.

I’ve been active in the music industry both as a performer and as a sound engineer for many years. I’m passionate about everything to do with music.

On this site I share my passion for everything to do with making, performing & appreciating music.


I’m a musician based in Auckland, New Zealand.

My passion for music began at school when a friend turned up with a battered old guitar. Together we began learning how to play the thing and from then on we spent every weekend practicing.

We soon mastered not only guitar but also bass and piano. Pretty soon we began composing songs. This was the beginning of my life long passion for music. It has never gone away.

My Mission

To share my passion and appreciation of all things music
