He began learning the clarinet between the age of 18/19 he had a few lessons from a clarinet teacher but decided after a few lessons that he could teach himself and began down the road of daily practice and discipline. It was at this time some friends who were putting a band together and he was asked to join- he was still learning but was so excited he said yes and struggled through with some determination and fortune. The lead singer in the band played clarinet at school so was able to help him through playing and understanding music, plus, the band was very supportive and patient. After about a year of rehearsing the band started playing gigs- they played mainly British and American air force base supporting artist such as Dr Feelgood. He was then asked to tour around Europe with a well known Reggae artist Dr Alimantado. After the tour Gee Came back and continued gigging with his band playing venues around England and the BBC stage in Birmingham. He was then offered another tour around England and Wales with poet Yusuf. After this decided to attend University to study music. After finishing his degree taught music in schools for 8 years. He then went back into music full-time, teaching Saxophone from his home, working as a session musician and as a solo saxophonist for weddings, corporate events, private parties and again touring Europe with Artist Maka B.
He is also a composer writing instrumental and vocal music, and has released an EP of his original works and is now planning to release his album of original composition which is to be released in summer 2015. He is an accomplished and experienced musician who can bring is debonair, classy and talent to any occasion.
