The future of the society depends on it's ability to change in order to reflect what is happening to church music within Methodism. MCMS has served the needs of organists and choirs for many years and, I'm sure, will continue to do so. That same excellent standard of service needs to be offered to all of our music groups and bands.

I have been a performing musician for over 30 years in a huge variety of situations and venues and for many different reasons. In 1991 I became founder and leader of a worship band in Loughborough and have led worship and entertained with Christian music in hundreds of Churches and Chapels in the UK. I have also played for Christian and secular events and festivals including Methodist conference morning worship and the MCMS conference.

One of my primary activities with the band has been the introduction of contemporary worship styles and music to more traditional congregations and to demonstrate we can move forward while keeping the best of our wonderful musical heritage. I am honored to be asked to serve as an elected member of the executive committee of the MCMS and feel my enthusiasm for music and my experience of modern worship music would be invaluable as the society embraces change.
