Joined Paradise 9 in February 2008.

Previously played in “Dirty Tryx” which later morphed into Casual Affair in the late 80's. Released an album with Casual Affair fronted by Mark Colton (Credo), Mike Mishra (Panoptykon) lead guitar, Barry Nutthall on keyboards and the very same Carl Sampson drums on band.

After extensive touring, the band finally split in 1992, and Neil went onto forming a band called ‘Sweet Oblivion’ gigging extensively all over the UK.

Casual Affair were brought back into action, following an offer to do a charity gig, in which Paradise 9 were also billed to play. Carl Sampson at this point had also joined the ranks of Paradise 9, and this followed with further Casual Affair gigs in and around London.
