Sneaky is a Classically trained musician who realized the need to search for his own musical identity at a very young age. After formal training on cello and doublebass and the completion of a music degree in his hometown of Manchester, UK Sneaky became involved with forward thinking club nights Headfunk and Eardrum alongside a young drummer James Ford (SimianMobileDisco), and resident djs Mr Scruff, Andy Votel, and Mark Rae. By 1997 Sneaky was heavily involved with Mark Rae´s label Grand Central as a live session musician touring extensively around Europe and Australia with the Rae & Christian band. A session with fellow Manc Mr Scruff in 99 produced the cheeky dancefloor classic “Get a move on” and the following year Sneaky formed FINGATHING with fellow R&C band member Peter Parker. After 7 years of worldwide touring, 3 albums, several singles and eps released through Grand Central and Ninja Tune records Sneaky moved to Berlin March 2007 to further his musical inspiration and has been making his solo mark ever since..... "Feel Like A King...Pluck A String" was released in 2009 on the Big Chill Label and follow up "Feel Like A Remix" in 2010. Sneaky has been developing a live show to present his music and in the last year performed a handful of critically acclaimed shows as a duo together with a drummer around UK and Europe. Other current musical projects and collaborations with: Graciela Maria , Robot Koch, RQM, Matt Frameworks plus his own berlin dj collective and imprint Hot Source.
