HOMETOWN

London, UK where I ran restaurants and curated art shows. I later became a licensed black cabbie and turned my cab into an art project called Cab Gallery.

NEIGHBORHOOD

Inglewood/East Nashville

Why nashville?

“It started with music, turned into marriage. I was drawn to Nashville for the vibrant music scene and burgeoning arts culture. On one of those trips, I was introduced to a girl… the rest they say is history. I’ve been living here full time since 2012.”

Favorite thing about Nashville?

“There really is something to be said for southern hospitality. The people are welcoming and friendly. There’s a sense of community and collaboration that encourages newcomers to be part of the action. Coming from the hustle and bustle of London, Nashville has a great pace of life. There’s plenty to do and it’s easy to access.”

Favorite Spots?

“The Station Inn in the Gulch is one of the first places I stepped into 20 years ago. I met my wife there, got married on the stage and now work there. It’s the best of Bluegrass and Americana music, a truly authentic Nashville listening room.”
