Influences: Ian Hunter / Mott The Hoople, The Eagles, Del Amitri.

Trey has been around the music business in some form or another for most of his life. Starting at the tender age of 7, he began classical piano training followed, a few years later, by cello, joining a youth orchestra and making his first stage appearances hidden in a huge crowd of other musicians. As school progressed he learned and played many instruments; trombone, bagpipes, violin, viola, trumpet and many others ad nauseum but really it was the draw of rock music that made him learn guitar, bass and keyboards.

The usual school bands followed without any notable success but a collaboration with his brother saw their band (MANDANO) in the studio recording 2 of Trey's songs. The band was named after one of the compositions (THE LEGEND OF THE SWORD OF MANDANO) a flight of fancy into a mysterious world of wizards and magic swords created while experimenting with some, shall we say, unusual substances and leave it at that!

Following the recordings, gigs were arranged but never happened because of Trey's career in catering that made getting the appropriate time off impossible so he had to hang up his live aspirations and stick to song-writing and playing for fun to fullfil his musical needs.

After a successful career in catering and the loss of both parents in quick succession, Trey decided to review his life goals and commit to music, first as a solo artist, then as a duo with a good friend, Cherry B, doing a Meatloaf and Cher tribute (LEATHER & LACE), then joining his first covers band (RIFFRAFF) based in Sheffield and no not an AC/DC tribute (although some of their songs did feature in the sets). Line up changes also brought about an ill-fated name change to (TRESPASS) and although the name sucked the band did not! The name was changed back after a year of venues still advertising the band by its former name. After 3 & 1/2 years Trey was head-hunted by Mark Cockerill for his band (ZERO DAMAGE). This band gigged even more frequently than RR and maintained the excellent reputation developed before Trey's arrival and the addition of keyboards to the guitar based band.

Then royalty called!!! The Queen tribute band (MONARCHY) asked Trey to join as a rather fat "Freddie" and though the experience was short-lived, it was invaluable in introducing Trey to the club/holiday camp scene.

With this experience under his belt, Trey decided to put together a GLAM ROCK tribute band, getting a previous band member of ZD Jim Peters on board and after many auditions and rehearsals recruited Andy and Johnny, also previous members of ZD which by now has folded.

GLAM! WAS BORN!

Since December 2007 GLAM! has rocked the pubs, clubs and holiday camps across the UK with a very distinctive brand of showmanship and colour!

Trey has recently recorded a solo album featuring 4 original songs and 6 covers of classic rock songs done acoustically with only Trey contributing both musically and vocally. This album is available on request at gigs.

Since December 2009 Trey has been writing and recording original songs in the hope of achieving his goal of releasing material to the general public via record companies and download sites.
