Where’s home?
Saltaire, near the Yorkshire Dales. It’s like this hipster enclave full of musicians from Leeds, where I cut my teeth gigging.
Earliest prog memory?
My dad’s record collection was vast, and when I was six years old I really loved Jeff Beck’s 70s and early-80s albums, like There & Back, when he was becoming a fusion guy.
First prog album?
It was Joe Satriani’s first album, Not Of This Earth, when I was nine. For me, he’s definitely a progressive artist.
