Born to a 3-time paper and comb world champion, and raised on the Shetland Islands, Vin picked up his first guitar aged 12 after failing miserably at the recorder. He played his first gigon Friday 13th, and went on to win best band South England. 

He can play a mean mandolin, and a useful ukulele.
He is a black-belt kung fu (true!), speaks Italian, and
makes a great cup of tea.

He also has a Phd in setting fire to stuff.

 

Vinnie Fact: Vinnie is both a cat
