Q. What is your favourite NFaC song to play?
A. Ahh that's a tricky one as I can't play any! Maybe the one where I can do my best air drumming...so I guess that'll be 'The Western Reach' from the Impossibly Beautiful album.

Q. What is your favourite NFaC song to listen to?
A. From the Impossibly Beautiful album I have a weak spot for 'Every Part of Me', and from the new Eternal Curve album I really like 'Loving You (without end)' it's a powerfully haunting track that deserves to be played really loud! I love it.

Q. What was your favourite NFaC moment?
A. The first photoshoot, when I made new friends and was able to share in the excitement and anticipation of a new adventure.

Q. What music are you enjoying at the moment?
A. The White Stripes and Foo Fighters both have great new albums out. And as I eagerly await Kate Bush's new offering I'm re-visiting her 'Red Shoes' album, which has some beautiful tracks on it, particularly 'Moments of Pleasure', it's a little melancholy but worth a listen.

Q. What was the best gig you ever went to?
A. Woodstock, hearing Hendrix play 'Star Spangled Banner' was something else...I'm told that if you can remember it you weren't really there! So back in the real world I'll have to say seeing '80s group 'All About Eve' play in Hastings a couple of years ago. After languishing in the doldrums for ages they came back revitalised with a tweaked line-up, new material and a whole lot of attitude, they put on a great show.

Q. Where would you love to be right now?
A. Paris, with that special someone

Q. Preferences:

Indoors or outdoors?
Outdoors without a doubt.
Sweet or savoury?
That's tricky, everything in it's place but chocolate fudge cake is pretty hard to resist.
A book or a movie?
Any book by Dan Brown (just kidding!), something escapist in the movie line like 'Calamity Jane' with Doris Day, or 'The Good, the Bad and the Ugly' with Clint Eastwood.
What question do you wish you'd been asked? And what was the answer?
Would you like another portion of chocolate fudge cake?
...well let me think. YES!
