59 year old carpenter fit and healthy belying his age and who’s played various styles and instruments all his life, and I think now I’d like to give playing more live a bit of a go. Covers band, jazzy, swing, folk, rock, 1930s to modern day,, Irish, Scottish, English, Americana, whatever, I love it all and I’ll give it a go.

Influences
Interesting question. Al Jolson to AC/DC, Louis Prima/Jordan to Phil Coulter. Django Reinhardt to Ralph McTell.
Grew up playing traditional Irish folk, 50s 60s rock and roll, found Gypsy Jazz at some point,, can play anything really to be fair as I’ve been influenced from far and wide fortunately.

EQUIPMENT
Ahh,, Immaculate 1980 Peavey T60 custom electric, all original and stunning.
Takamine and Yamaha acoustics.
Around a dozen ukes varying from medium to very high quality, I say they are teaching aides as I teach a club here in Devon, but that’s not really true, I jus like collecting them! ??????
