I was born and raised in Kingston, Jamaica. I started playing the piano at the age of 7 with encouragement from my parents. When I was 17 years old, I found my brother-in-law’s bass guitar and by the next morning I had taught myself the bass lines to a few songs. My passion for the bass guitar and for music in general grew from there. When I started College, I became serious about my music career. I studied visual arts, Jazz theory and the bass guitar at the Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performing Arts in Kingston, Jamaica. During my studies my main influences were the various bands I performed in; the Javier Latin Jazz Band, the Jill Gibson Trio and the Kathy Brown Band, which allowed me to tour all around Jamaica. I am the owner and founder of Airplai® Productions, where I do album production, song writing, composing/arranging, video editing, film scoring, and jingles. In 2002 I created the Perfect10course, which continues to offer online and in-person music lessons for bass guitar, upright bass, piano, guitar, drums, percussion and ukulele. In 2013, I was discovered online by an agent, which led me to performing as a Solo Bassist/Guitarist onboard cruise ships. I worked on cruise ships until the beginning of 2019. That year I settled in Canada with my wife and started our family.
