some current music projects


I joined Good Noise Bad Noise during last summer. John Hall (I played sax in The Big Pants with him a lifetime ago) and Shaun Blezard manipulate samples live on their laptops, while Dan projects live images. I play violin through fx pedals on top of this. It is improvised music. I didn't even get a rehearsal before the first gig. More details at the MySpace site.


Lyn Hodnett has joined me to form a heavy blues duo. We set up the group to see if we could do rauncy blues numbers without guitars. Lyn sings and plays kazoo and percussion. I play violin and Uke. These are our own arrangements of some great and some not so great classics. I'll put some music up when we have recorded some.


Jazz Photos A site I made for my dad, Derek Woodall, and his collection of photographs of Jazz musicians in North East Lancashire taken in the 'seventies and 'eighties.

Part one of a five part piano piece November Piano. This was created without ever touching a piano keyboard. The notes were put onto the staves using a mouse in my XGworks software. I must get a little hand on this watch.


A very slow version of a classic bebop improvisation with a great deal of echo on the violin, Slow.


A big band sound that soon degenerates into chaos, Eventually.
