About Me

I started studying music at the age of 15, taking private vocal lessons whilst playing and performing with his first garage band. At the age of 16, he immersed himself on a 3 year long Classical Music Diploma, obtaining a vast knowledge of composition and harmonization, as well as developing his vocal technique, singing in the local choir for 2 years and taking private lessons on weekly basis.

After graduating Carl formed his first professional band, Scelerata, recording his first worldwide release at the age of 22. Darkness and Light (Produced by Scelerata, Mastered by Dennis Ward), the bands first album, was released via Mtm/Spv (Europe), Spiritual Beast/Universal (Japan/Asia), Nightmare Recs/Universal (USA & Canada) and Voice Music (Brasil), and was acclaimed natiowide, being voted by the Rock Brigade readers, 3rd best album of 2006, behind only Sepultura and Angra, the 2 biggest Metal icons in Brazil.

Did loads and moved permanently to London/UK back in 2008, where i played and toured with a few bands, tour managed several artists.

Worked for the Royal Collection in Buckingham palace and currently dividing myself between 3 places, Stratford Arts Centre, Barbican Arts Centre and Diorama Arts Studios!
