Appears on Mantler's Live album as pianist and bassist, and as singer in The School of Understanding.

He was born in North Wales and educated at Cambridge University (with a degree in English Literature). During the early days of his career he has been bassist and collaborator with many English "art rock" and jazz bands, including Henry Cow, Fred Frith, Robert Wyatt, Mike Oldfield, Link Wray and National Health. He soon started solo projects including the first notable album Kew Rhone (it was during that production that Greaves and Mantler originally met), a collaboration with Peter Blegvad which continues until today. He then went on to perform and record with The Pedestrians, The Penguin Café Orchestra, The Lodge, Peter Gordon and Michael Nyman. He has lived in France now for some time, mostly working on his own touring and recording projects as pianist - composer - singer.
