Glenn’s main influences include Led Zeppelin and Rush, with many others added (including a bit of himself) to produce his unique flavour of rock music.
Aged 16 he joined his first covers rock band, then original ones, including The ‘Figgy Fox Banned’ as featured on the BBC2 documentary ‘Present Imperfect'. The show used one of his songs, as the theme music to the programme. The song also reached Number 1 in the UK Demo chart.
He then joined ‘Bedouin’ featuring Alan Davey & Dan Thompson, (both ex-Hawkwind). A studio and live album followed, with performances across the UK and Europe, including UK major venues such as: Manchester Apollo, Liverpool Empire & London's Brixton Academy.
As a songwriter, he was awarded runner-up position, in the UK Songwriting contest, for 'CONTACT' ahead of 6,200 other artists. The judges included: JEFF BECK, The World Music Foundation, The Brit Trust and The Guild of International Songwriters & Composers.
Further awards include a Diploma in audio sound engineering & production.
He has also played the role of 'Gimmy Page' in some of the UK's best Led Zeppelin tribute acts.
Having signed with a major USA music publisher, alongside his songwriting, studio and live work, he also writes for TV & Film.
