ABOUT

I'm an experienced lead guitarist currently playing in 2 x local bands, one classic rock the other is a functions band but looking to leave the latter as it is not progressing or gigging regularly.

I have been playing gigs regularly for at least the past 11 years, on and off for for 6-7 years before that and just want to be out there, playing as often as possible!

I'm putting the feelers out there, looking for an established band either covers or function that are regularly gigging and like to have fun doing it. Perhaps you've lost your lead guitarist and need someone that can slot straight in and be up to speed quickly.

Videos are from a recent gig (feb 2024) ...why is it so hard to get good ones?! :o)

I live in Turners Hill, West Sussex but I'm happy to travel. Easy going, no ego, short, slightly round
