ABOUT

I'm a lead guitarist, songwriter/composer/arranger, lead and backup singer, and also perform as solo acoustic or with mates from time to time. I love performing as guitarist/lead guitarist and belting out a lead vocal or strong harmony. Started playing guitar in late 60s and never stopped learning and playing. Loads of different genres and happy to mix 'em. Lots of energy in my lead playing. Gigging off and on since 60s. Currently have own band getting started with mostly original material, covering variety of genres. Looking for musical partners/contributors/band members, particularly keyboardist.
