ABOUT

My name is Dave Sylva (25) I am looking for session work as a Lead Guitar player. My main style is Rock/Pop with a bit of country thrown in, imagine the melodic style of Bill Nelson (Be Bop Deluxe), the harmonies of Brian May (Queen) mixed with the raw energy of Rory Gallagher. Plus a bit of finger picking styles of Lindsey Buckingham (Fleetwood Mac). No Metal. I will also sing backing harmony vocals if required.

19 years experience playing guitar
12 years experience performing live
10 years experience recording and mixing music as a studio engineer.

Supported McFly, Whitesnake, Journey, Thunder, Gerry McAvoy's Band Of Freinds, Limehouse Lizzy, The Bon Jovi Experience.

Available for Studio or Live work.

I am currently part of REIGN OF KINGS (Formerly M.A.D.I.S.O.N) and SYLVA STEEL (Acoustic Duo)

Videos & Audio of my playing/ recording/ mixing skills can be heard here:

I have all my own gear and transport. Based in Telford. Will travel (within reason).
Looking for paid work only please.
I can also play Rhythm Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Mandolin, Piano, Keyboard, Drums, Lead Vocals & Backing Harmony Vocals. Only looking for guitar and backing vocal work.
Get in touch if you think I would be right for your band or studio recordings!

Cheers,

Dave
